The ESS sends SIMs to System/390 host consoles for the following three
types of SIMs:
v
Direct access storage device (DASD) SIM
This SIM tracks disk drive module (DDM) failures and problems.
v
Media SIM
This SIM tracks data check problems on the media.
v
Storage facility SIM
This SIM tracks control unit, power control, and other hardware problems.
You select the number of times that the ESS sends a SIM to your console. The
ESS can send a SIM 1 - 9 times, or not at all (0). You also select the severity
level of the SIMs. The ESS does not send any SIMs that are below the
severity level that you select. Severity levels are:
1 acute An irrecoverable error with possible loss of data. This severity
level only applies to DASD SIMs.
2 serious An irrecoverable error or a data check with loss of access to
data.
3 moderate A system path or paths are not operational, and performance
may be degraded. This severity level does not apply to media
SIMs.
4 service A recoverable error, equipment checks, or data checks. You
can defer repair.
Enter the severity levels for the SIMs and enter the number of times the ESS
should send a SIM:
