CenturyStack 8100 Managed Hub

Address Search Status

In Use: A management station has obtained ownership.

Not in Use: No other management station has obtained
ownership.

A management station first retrieves the values of the
appropriate instances of the Address Search Lock and
Address Search Status objects, periodically repeating the
retrieval if necessary, until the value of Address Search
Status is ‘Not In Use’. The management station then tries to
set the Address Search Lock In Use. If the set operation
succeeds, then the management station has obtained
ownership of the entry, and the value of Address Search
Lock is incremented to 1. Failure of the set operation
indicates that some other manager has obtained ownership
of the entry.
