The Shelf object defines a group of adaptors controlled by a processor card. The VP3000 contains two shelves, one above the other, with a processor card in each. This arrangement means that you can achieve resilience and fault tolerance by using redundant resources in each of the two shelves. For example, you can have an MTP2 adaptor card active in each shelf, and use two MTP2 links to the same destination, one on each adaptor card; this means that, if one MTP2 adaptor card or one processor card fails, there is still a link to the destination using the other card.
This object is pre-configured (configuration information is delivered with the VP3000), and you cannot create or delete it, but the object provides status information about the shelf and its adaptors. There are two instances of this object for each VP3000 - Shelf A (the top shelf ) and Shelf B (the bottom shelf).
Each Shelf object is a child of the Media Gateway object.
