Background
Section titled “Background”This alarm means the hover configuration checker found one or more corners where the hover spin direction does not match the expected corner.
This usually indicates a true hardware mismatch rather than a pure provisioning issue. It may be accompanied by one or more corner-specific *_SPIN_INCORRECT alarms that identify the affected hover position, but the operator action is the same regardless of which corner is named.
See DISTRO HOVER CONFIGURATION CHECKER for a description of how the diagnostic works.
