Description
Display information about the conditions that have been configured to trigger alarms.
In Junos, the chassis alarms are different from the system alarms (viewed by using
the show system alarms
command). The system alarms indicate a
missing rescue configuration or software license, where valid. For more information,
see Alarm Overview.

Additional Information
Chassis alarms are preset. You cannot modify them.
You cannot clear the alarms for chassis components. Instead, you must remedy the cause of the alarm. When a chassis alarm LED is lit, it indicates that you are running the router or switch in a manner that we do not recommend.
On routers, you can manually silence external devices connected to the alarm relay contacts by pressing the alarm cutoff button, located on the craft interface. Silencing the device does not remove the alarm messages from the display (if present on the router) or extinguish the alarm LEDs. In addition, new alarms that occur after you silence an external device reactivate the external device.
MX10003 routers do not support craft interface.
In Junos OS release 11.1 and later, alarms for fans also show the slot number of the fans in the CLI output.
In Junos OS Release 11.2 and later, the command output on EX8200 switches shows the
detailed location (Plane/FPC/PFE
) for link errors in the
chassis.
In Junos OS Release 10.2 and later, an alarm is shown on T Series routers for a standby SONET Clock Generator (SCG) that is offline or absent.
You may often see the following error messages, in which only the error code is shown and no other information is provided:
Apr 12 08:04:10 send: red alarm set, device FPC 6, reason FPC 6 Major Errors - Error code: 257 Apr 12 08:04:19 send: red alarm set, device FPC 1, reason FPC 1 Major Errors - Error code: 559
To understand what CM_ALARM error codes mean, you need to first identify the structure of the CM Alarm codes. A CM_ALARM code has the following structure:
Bits: |
Error type: |
1-31 |
Major (1) |
0 |
Minor (0) |
According to the table above, the LSB (bit 0) identifies the Error Type (major alarm, if the bit is set and minor alarm if the bit is unset). The rest of the bits (1 - 31) identify the actual error code.
Take an example of the following error code, which was logged on a T1600:
Apr 12 08:04:10 send: red alarm set, device FPC 1, reason FPC 1 Major Errors - Error code: 559
First, you have to convert 559 to binary; that is 1000101111. The LSB in this case is 1, which means that this is a major alarm. After removing the LSB, you are left with 100010111, which is equal to 279 in decimal. This is the actual error code, its meaning can be found from the following list:

According to the table above, the 279 error code corresponds to CMALARM_NCHIP_DBUF_CRC_ERR; this means that new CRC errors were seen on the NCHIP of this particular FPC, which is FPC as per the logs.
If you do not want to convert decimal to binary and vice versa, you may use the following shortcut:
For major alarms, the Actual Error Code = (Error Code - 1)/2, where Error Code is the code that you get in the log message. For example, if you get the following log:
Apr 12 08:04:10 send: red alarm set, device FPC 6, reason FPC 6 Major Errors - Error code: 257
Actual Error Code = (257-1)/2 = 128. Similarly, for minor alarms, Actual Error Code = (Error Code)/2
Starting in Junos OS Release 18.2R1, on MX Series routers, the show

output does not display error codes for PFE-related
errors. You can use the following commands to view more details of the errors

A major CB 0 failure alarm occurs in the event of a bad CB (unknown or mismatched CBs do not trigger this alarm in Junos Release OS 12.3R9 and later). Following GRES or recovery, if the hardware issue persists, the traffic moves to the good CB and continues. If the alarm was triggered by something transient like a power zone budget on GRES, bringing the CB back online can clear the alarm. Otherwise, replace the bad CB. Note that fabric link speed is not impacted by an offline SCB. The alarm migh be raised on CB0, CB1, and CB2.

If the LCMD process is crashing on the primary, the system will switchover after one minute provided the backup RE LCMD connection is stable. The system will not switchover under the following conditions: if the backup RE LCMD connection is unstable or if the current primary just gained primary role. When the primary has just gained primary role, the switchover happens only after four minutes.
The LCM peer connection un-stable alarm is raised when the LCMD-CHASD IPC communication flaps three times within a small interval of two to three minutes. Once LCM peer connection un-stable alarm is raised, the connection status is monitored for two minutes.
