4.2 MMB Functions
4.2.3 Hardware monitor
This function monitors for hardware failures and errors.
Hardware failures and errors are detected by various types of check mechanisms and
sensors. If a failure or an error is detected, the required corrective action must be
taken according to the location where the failure or error was detected, and the
elements of the system configuration in place, such as mirror mode, redundant
configuration, and the like. All logs including logs about processing that was able to
proceed following a failure or error occurrence (such as parts replacement and parts
disconnection) are collected and error messages are issued.
Failures and errors are displayed by LEDs according to their severity. In addition,
different types of reports are supported as follows: reports to applications for
operation management following SNMP trap configuration, mail reports to the
system administrator following alarm e-mail configuration, and reports to the
REMCS Center following REMCS() registration.
To reduce the amount of displayed information, all logs and messages can be filtered
prior to their display. The conditions for notifying information on abnormal states
that have been detected can also be set.
An example of the display of system event logs is shown in Figure 4.8 , and an
example of the filter selection screen is shown in Figure 4.9 .
