Change Settings of File System Monitoring Function
New settings in thresholds of monitoring interval and free space monitoring are not reflected
immediately after they are changed. They are reflected at the next monitoring interval of monitoring
service.
CPU Load Ratio of SNMP Service (snmp.exe)
While monitoring the server from NEC ESMPRO Manager, the CPU load ratio of SNMP Service
on the NEC ESMPRO Agent side may increase at every monitoring interval (default: 1 minute).
NEC ESMPRO Manager and NEC ESMPRO Agent exchange information through SNMP Service.
If the server status monitoring by NEC ESMPRO Manager is on (default: ON), NEC ESMPRO
Manager regularly issues a request to NEC ESMPRO Agent to get the current status of the server. In
response, NEC ESMPRO Agent checks the status of the server. As a result, the CPU load ratio of
SNMP Service increases temporarily.
If you have trouble of terminating a movie player application, turn off the server status monitoring
by NEC ESMPRO Manager or extend the monitoring interval.
Current Status of Temperature, Voltage and Fan Sensors
Some modes are equipped with temperature/voltage/fan sensors that do not have information on
status, current values, rpm, threshold etc. Therefore, if you view such a sensor on NEC ESMPRO
Manager, it may be displayed as follows:
„
The status becomes “Unknown” (grayed out) on the data viewer.
„
The current value or rpm becomes “Unknown” on data viewer.
„
The status is grayed out on the Web component data viewer.
„
The current value or rpm becomes blank on the Web component data viewer.
Even if the sensor is displayed like stated above, it is monitoring the server.
Actions to Take When Temperature/Voltage Error Occurs on CPU/PCI Modules
At the time when a temperature or voltage error occurs on CPU/PCI module (CPU/IO module),
necessary actions will differ depending on its status as shown below. You can check the status of
each module from the data viewer of NEC ESMPRO Manager or Server Maintenance Utility.
Status Actions
Duplex Stop the failed CPU/PCI module (CPU/IO module).
Simplex Shut down the system.
TIPS:
„
If the status is “Empty Absent,” the module is not mounted. Sensor monitoring is not
conducted.
„
If disks are mounted on PCI modules (IO modules), the status of both modules is “Simplex”
while the disks are mirrored. Temperature or voltage error occurring during disk mirroring
will result in the system to shut down.
