   The Host names, status, and RCI addresses are listed which the management server monitors.

   The following keywords may appear in the "Status" column:

   FATAL : Fatal error

   WARNING: A warning-level error or preventive maintenance event occurred.

   NORMAL : Normal

   DOWN : The host is down or communication with the host is not possible.

   UNKNOWN: The status is unknown

   

   • If the appropriate host name is not recognized because it was changed, "DOWN" appears in the Status column.
   • To delete a host name select the host name that you want to delete and click the [Exec] button.

     The selected host name is deleted from the list.

   • If the main unit to be monitored does not support the GUI menu (Web-Based Admin View), "DOWN" or "UNKNOWN" appears in the Status column and the GUI menu is not displayed. In this case, the GUI menu cannot be displayed.
4. Click the "host name" for the host that you want to monitor.
5. Click the [Exec] button.
