Error and Status Messages
You can configure the system to send syslog messages that indicate any deviations
from the norm. These messages include the following deviations:
• Not enough power available
5SYS-3-PORT_NOPOWERAVAIL:Device on port 5/12 will remain unpowered
• Link did not come up after powering up the port
%SYS-3-PORT_DEVICENOLINK:Device on port 5/26 powered but no link
up
• Faulty port power
%SYS-6-PORT_INLINEPWRFLTY:Port 5/7 reporting inline power as
faulty
Power status can also be displayed on a per-port basis using the show port status
command. The command displays the following values:
• On—Power is being supplied by the port.
• Off—Power is not being supplied by the port.
• Power-deny—System does not have enough power, so the port does not
supply power.
Dual Supervisors
When the system is using dual supervisors, power management per port and
phone status are synchronized between the active and standby supervisor. This is
done on an ongoing basis and is triggered with any change to the power allocation
or phone status. The usefulness and functioning of the high availability features
are unaffected by the use of inline power.
Power Protection
Cisco recommends that backup power be used for a higher degree of redundancy
and availability. See the “Power Protection Strategies” section on page 2-4.
