Symptom
The data displayed when executing the show controller phy | inc dBm is accurate.
sh controller Te0/6/0/0/6 phy | inc dBm
Total Tx power: 0.37 mW ( -4.29 dBm)
Lane 5 Tx power: 0.37 mW ( -4.29 dBm)
Total Rx power: 0.25 mW ( -5.95 dBm)
Lane 5 Rx power: 0.25 mW ( -5.95 dBm)
SNMP Poll for the Corresponding Optical Sensor OID displays inaccurate values

Conditions
Issue is seen in TenGigE interfaces using Lanes other then Lane 0.
This issue is triggered by the restart of the slice_mgr_proxy process in a linecard with slices in 10GE beakout mode.
Workaround
None
Recovery Process:
Process restart of slice_manager on the affected line card from the Sysadmin VM --> "process restart slice_manager loc " clears the issue.
Further Problem Description
The slice_manager will update the sensor data when one of the following events occur which will recover the issue for the affected interface:
- Process restart of slice_manager on the affected LC.
- LC Reload
- Optical Cable Pull/Insert
- Optics OIR
- Level change of > +/- 50 uW from previous reading. The slice_manager process checks for a change in the level every minute and will update if current value it is +/- 50 uW of the previous reading.
