Storage Management Alert Reference 783

The alert severity levels are as follows:

SNMP Support for Storage Management Alerts

By default, Storage Management installs SNMP trap forwarding support.

For this support to function, you should have SNMP installed on the

managed system prior to installing Storage Management.

NOTE: For more information on installation requirements and SNMP, see the

Server Administrator documentation.

SNMP Trap Forwarding

The Storage Management alerts are displayed in the Server Administrator

alert log and are forwarded to the Windows application alert log. If you have

SNMP installed on the managed system (and the SNMP service is running),

the Storage Management alerts in the Windows application alert log are

forwarded as SNMP traps. In order for these traps to be viewable, however,

a target system or application must be configured to receive these traps.

SNMP traps that are generated by Storage Management can be viewed in any

standard SNMP-compatible enterprise management console.

Table 27-1. Storage Management Alert Severity

Alert Severity Component Status

OK/Normal/Informational No action is required. The alert is provided for

informational purposes and does not indicate an error

condition. For example, the alert may indicate the

normal start or stop of an operation.

Warning/Non-critical A component requires attention. This alert indicates a

potential problem, but does not necessarily mean that

the system has currently lost data or is nonfunctional.

For example, a Warning/Non-critical alert may indicate

that a component (such as a temperature probe in an

enclosure) has crossed a warning threshold.

Critical/Failure/Error A component has either failed or failure is imminent.

This alert indicates a serious problem such as data loss or

a loss of function. For example, a Critical/Failure/Error

alert may indicate that an array disk has failed.
