C6576M Port Adapter Dialog Box Chapter 5 Physical Object Dialog Boxes Actions Area Status Field The Actions area of the C6576M Port Adapter dialog box provides the following actions: • Commission-This button is used to commission the object manually. This can only be done if the object is in a decommissioned state. • Decommission-This button is used to decommission the object manually. In the decommissioned state, the properties of the object are not monitored. As a result, data displayed in the configuration window is not guaranteed to be current. The decommission action allows a port adapter to be removed and replaced without generating alarms. The display-only Status field located at the bottom of the window indicates the current state of the object. This field can have the following values: • decommissioned-CEMF is not actively monitoring the object attributes. • normal-Presence polling is performed periodically. • performance-Some attributes are collected periodically for trending purposes. • normallostcomms-CEMF has lost communication with the device from the normal state. • perflostcomms-CEMF has lost communication with the device from the performance state. • mismatched-The type of port adapter discovered does not match the predeployed port adapter.
