This chapter describes how this software monitors for faults in devices consisting of a storage system and explains the fault information displayed and actions to be taken if an error occurs.
See
Refer to "Fault Management" in "Function Overview of Storage Cruiser" of the Overview for information on the fault monitoring.
Refer to the Event Guide for details on events.
Refer to "1.1 Support Levels" for details on the support levels mentioned in this chapter.
The protocols that can be used for fault monitoring differ depending on the device. Refer to "1.1 Support Levels" for protocols that can be used.
This software performs the fault monitoring operation as explained below by processing events that are asynchronously reported by monitoring information from Agent and an SNMP Trap from each device. The SNMP Trap must be correctly set in the device that supports that SNMP Trap.
The Manager's event processing function is a resident function that is always when Manager is started (when the Management Server is started up). Therefore, Web Console does not need to be started when a fault is only reported by Systemwalker Centric Manager linkage or Shell/bat linkage.
Manager processes event monitoring information from Agent in the same manner as for an SNMP Trap.
