Daily Maintenance
To use the server under good conditions at all times, periodically check and perform maintenance as follows. If
abnormalities are found, ask your sales representative, avoiding impossible operation.
2.1
Monitoring CSC modules
We strongly recommend that you monitor CSC modules remotely during normal system operation.
If not, CSC module’s faults might not be detected.
The user needs to prepare a monitoring program.
To monitor CMM from a management terminal, use an IPMI command such as
sensor list
.
2.2
Alerting from BMC and CSC modules
When running the system, we strongly recommend that you use PET alert features to monitor your system.
The BMC and CSC modules can send a PET alert when abnormality such as a hardware error occurs. For
how to configure alert features, refer to
Chapter 1 (7.3.1 SNMP trap setting command)
. For a list of alerts,
refer to
Chapter 1 (4. Troubleshooting)
.
Platform event trap (PET) events are SNMP trap events compliant with the Intelligent Platform Management
Interface (IPMI). The user needs to prepare a program for receiving traps.
2.3
Checking STATUS LED
Check the STATUS LED on the front of the server. For the functions and descriptions of the LED, refer to
Chapter 1 (3. Names and Functions of Parts)
in
DX2000
User’s Guide.
If the indicator shows the server
abnormality, contact your sales representative.
2.4
Backup
We recommend that you periodically back up the data on the hard disk drives, as well as NW switch settings.
For a storage device for back up and a backup tool suitable for your system, contact your sales
representative.
Refer to
NEC Scalable Modular Server DX2000 LAN Switch Software Configuration Guide
for more
information about backing up NW switch settings.
