PSH Overview
PSH provides problem diagnosis on the SP and the host. Regardless of where a fault occurs,
you can view and manage the fault diagnosis from the SP or the host.
When possible, PSH initiates steps to take the component offline. PSH also logs the fault to the
syslogd
daemon and provides a fault notification with a message ID. You can use the message
ID to get additional information about the problem from the knowledge article database.
A PSH console message provides this information about each detected fault:
■
Type
■
Severity
■
Description
■
Automated response
■
Impact
■
Suggested action for system administrator
If PSH detects a faulty component, use the
fmadm faulty
command to display information
about the fault. See “Check for Faults” on page 41 .
