Description | A Flash partitioning operation entry. Each entry
consists of the command, the target device, the
partition count, and optionally the partition sizes.
A management station wishing to create an entry should
first generate a pseudo-random serial number to be used
as the index to this sparse table. The station should
then create the associated instance of the row status
object. It must also, either in the same or in successive
PDUs, create the associated instance of the command and
parameter objects. It should also modify the default values
for any of the parameter objects if the defaults are not
appropriate.
Once the appropriate instances of all the command
objects have been created, either by an explicit SNMP
set request or by default, the row status should be set
to active to initiate the operation. Note that this entire
procedure may be initiated via a single set request which
specifies a row status of createAndGo as well as specifies
valid values for the non-defaulted parameter objects.
Once an operation has been activated, it cannot be
stopped.
Once the operation completes, the management station should
retrieve the value of the status object (and time if
desired), and delete the entry. In order to prevent old
entries from clogging the table, entries will be aged out,
but an entry will never be deleted within 5 minutes of
completing. |
