dm_fc_hub(1m)dm_fc_hub(1m)NAME
- monitors fibre channel arbitrated loop hubs
SYNOPSISDESCRIPTION
is the hardware event monitor for Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop Hub
products. It monitors all instances of the devices for the occurrence
of abnormal events.
event monitoring requests are created using the Hardware Monitoring
Request Manager (monconfig). Monitoring requests for status changes
caused by events are created using the Event Monitoring Service (EMS).
Both types of monitoring requests are handled by the EMS.
Supported Devices
monitors the following disk devices:
Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop Hub Model A3724A
Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop Hub Model A4839A
Options
does not support any options.
Resource Class Paths
Event Monitor /connectivity/events/hubs/FC_hub
Status Monitor /connectivity/status/hubs/FC_hub
Additional Configuration Settings
supports the following additional settings in its configuration file.
Identifies the number of hubs the monitor will be responsible for moni‐
toring.
This setting is required.
Identifies the IP address for each hub the monitor will monitor. The
"X" placeholder is replaced by the number assigned to the hub. There
must be a separate setting for each hub. This setting is required.
These settings define the SNMP community assigned to the hubs
being
monitored. The SITE setting is used for all
hubs, unless overridden by a HUB_X setting
for the specific hub identified by X. The
text string cannot contain embedded spaces.
Identifies the hub's location if the hub's system.sysLo‐
cation value is not set. This value is used as the hub's
location in log messages. The SITE setting is used for
all hubs, unless overridden by a HUB_X setting for the
specific hub identified by X. The text string cannot con‐
tain embedded spaces.
Identifies the hub contact if the hub's sys‐
tem.sysContact value is not set. This value is
used as the hub's contact in log messages. The
SITE setting is used for all hubs, unless overrid‐
den by a HUB_X setting for the specific hub iden‐
tified by X. The text string cannot contain embed‐
ded spaces.
These settings define the SNMP retry value
in seconds. The SITE setting is used for
all hubs, unless overridden by a HUB_X set‐
ting for the specific hub identified by X.
Valid values are 1 - 5.
These settings define the SNMP time‐
out value in seconds. The SITE set‐
ting is used for all hubs, unless
overridden by a HUB_X setting for
the specific hub identified by X.
Valid values are 1 - 5.
This setting determines if the indi‐
cated hub will be monitored. Valid
values are 0 (No) and 1 (Yes).
Identifies the hub's sysname if the
hub's system.sysName value is not
set.
Severity Levels
All hardware events are assigned a
severity level by the monitor. These
severity levels reflect the poten‐
tial impact of the event on system
operation. Monitoring requests are
created based on the severity lev‐
els.
An event that will or has
already caused data loss,
system down time, or other
loss of service. Immediate
action is required to correct
the problem. System operation
will be impacted and normal
use of the hardware should
not continue until the prob‐
lem is corrected. If Service‐
Guard is installed and this
is a critical component, it
will perform a package fail-
over.
An event that may cause data
loss, system down time, or
other loss of service if left
uncorrected. The problem
should be repaired as soon as
possible. System operation
and normal use of the hard‐
ware may be impacted. If Ser‐
viceGuard is installed and
this is a critical component,
it will perform a package
fail-over.
An event that could escalate
to a more serious condition
if not corrected. The problem
should be repaired at a con‐
venient time. System opera‐
tion should not be impacted
and normal use of the hard‐
ware can continue. If Ser‐
viceGuard
is installed,
it will NOT
perform a
package fail-
over.
An event that will not likely
escalate to a more serious
condition if let uncorrected.
The problem can be repaired
at a convenient time. System
operation will not be inter‐
rupted and normal use of the
hardware can continue. If
ServiceGuard is installed, it
will NOT perform a package
fail-over.
An event that occurs as part
of the normal operation of
the hardware. No action is
required. If ServiceGuard is
installed, it will NOT per‐
form a package fail-over.
