Fault management overview
Fault management enables you to monitor your managed SAN and IP networks using the following
methods:
•
Listen, forward, and process SNMP traps for SAN and IP devices, which eliminates the need to
poll devices for events.
•
Receive and forward Syslog messages from Fabric OS switches, IP devices, and Brocade
adapters — HBAs and CNAs are managed using the Host Connectivity Manager (HCM) Agent.
•
Manage pseudo events.
•
Configure the following event actions:
-
Logging policy
-
E-mail alerts
-
Scripts
-
Broadcast to clients
-
Special events handling
-
Run supportSave (SAN only)
•
Monitor audit logs and event logs for specified conditions.
•
Support application events.
