Storage Management's alert or event management features let you monitor the health of storage resources such as controllers, channels, array disks, and virtual disks.


Alert Monitoring and Logging

The Storage Management Service performs alert monitoring and logging. By default, the Storage Management Service starts when the managed system starts up. If you stop the Disk Management Service, then alert monitoring and logging stops. Alert monitoring does the following:

  • Updates the status of the storage object that generated the alert.

  • Propagates the storage object's status to all the related higher objects in the storage hierarchy. For example, the status of a lower-level object will be propagated up to the status displayed on the Health tab for the top-level storage object.

  • Logs an alert into the Alert log and Microsoft® Windows® application log.

  • Sends an Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) trap if the operating system's SNMP service is installed and enabled.

NOTE: Storage Management does not log alerts regarding the data I/O path. These alerts are logged by the respective RAID drivers in the system alert log.

Viewing Alerts

Storage Management generates alerts that are added to the Windows application alert log and to the Server Administrator Alert log. To view these alerts in Server Administrator:

  1. Select the System object in the tree view.

  2. Select the Logs tab.

  3. Select the Alert subtab.

NOTE: You can also view these alerts in the Windows Event Viewer. Every alert consists of the following:
  • Severity — Shows the severity of alert.

  • Date and Time — Date and time when Storage Management logged the alert.

  • Description — A brief description of the alert. To expand or collapse the alert description, click the Description column heading.


  • Alert Severity Levels

    Each alert message in the Storage Management alert log has a severity level. The severity level is displayed in the Severity field of the alert message. The severity level indicates the nature of the alert.

    The alert severity levels are as follows:

    Table 25-1. 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.


    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 will be 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.

    The Windows SNMP service must be configured to forward the SNMP traps to the target system or application. When forwarding to an application, the application should also be configured to receive the SNMP traps. The IT Assistant application is already configured to receive the SNMP traps generated by Storage Management.

    See your Windows operating system documentation for information on configuring the operating system to forward SNMP traps. This information may be located under such topics as "setting up SNMP" or "SNMP traps." When configuring SNMP for Windows, be sure that the SNMP traps are forwarded to the correct server. For information on configuring an application to receive SNMP traps, see the documentation for that application.

    SNMP Trap Definitions

    The Storage Management management information base (MIB) defines the SNMP traps that Storage Management generates. These traps correspond to the alerts documented in the "Alert Descriptions and Corrective Actions" section. The MIB is located in ..\sm\mibs\dcstorag.mib, a subdirectory of the Storage Management installation directory.

    NOTE: Storage Management supports trap forwarding on both 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems.

    SNMP Trap Variables

    The Storage Management SNMP traps use a set of variables that are included with every trap. These variables are the following:

    • messageIDEvent

    • descriptionEvent

    • locationEvent

    • objectNameEvent

    • objectOIDEvent

    • objectNexusEvent

    • currentStatusEvent

    • previousStatusEvent


    Viewing SNMP Traps

    SNMP traps that are generated by Storage Management can be viewed in any standard SNMP-compatible enterprise management console. These traps are defined in the Storage Management MIB. These traps correspond to the alerts documented in the "Alert Descriptions and Corrective Actions" section. For more information on the MIB and its structure, as well as a change history of the SNMP traps, see the "Introduction" section. For more information on configuring SNMP, see "SNMP Support for Storage Management Alerts."


    Alert Descriptions and Corrective Actions

    The following sections describe alerts generated by the Redundant Array of Independent disks (RAID) or Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) controllers supported by Storage Management. The alerts are displayed in the Server Administrator Alert subtab or through Windows Event Viewer. These alerts can also be forwarded as SNMP traps to other applications.

    SNMP traps are generated for the alerts listed in the following sections. These traps are included in the Storage Management MIB. The SNMP traps for these alerts use all of the SNMP trap variables. For more information on SNMP support and the MIB, see "SNMP Support for Storage Management Alerts."

    To locate an alert, scroll through the following table to find the alert number displayed on the Server Administrator Alert tab or search this HTML file for the alert message text or number. See "Alert Severity Levels" for more information on severity levels.

    For more information regarding alert descriptions and the appropriate corrective actions, see the online help.

    Device failed

    Critical / Failure / Error

    Cause: A storage component such as an array disk or an enclosure has failed. The failed component may have been identified by the controller while performing a task such as a rescan or a check consistency.

    Action: Replace the failed component. You can identify which component has failed by locating the component that has a red "X" for its status. Perform a rescan after replacing the failed component.

    500

    2049

    Array disk removed

    Warning / Non-critical

    Cause: A physical disk has been removed from the array. A user may have also executed the "Prepare to Remove" task. This alert can also be caused by loose or defective cables or by problems with the enclosure.

    Action: If a physical disk was removed from the array, either replace the disk or restore the original disk. You can identify which disk has been removed by locating the disk that has a red "X" for its status. Perform a rescan after replacing or restoring the disk. If a disk has not been removed from the array, then check for problems with the cables. See the online help for more information on checking the cables. Make sure that the enclosure is powered on. If the problem persists, check the enclosure documentation for further diagnostic information.

    903

    501

    2050

    Array disk offline

    Warning / Non-critical

    Cause: A physical disk in the array is offline. A disk can be made offline during a Prepare to Remove operation or because a user manually put the disk offline.

    Action: Perform a rescan. You can also select the offline disk and perform a Make Online operation.

    903

    502

    2051

    Array disk is degraded

    Warning / Non-critical

    Cause: An array disk has reported an error condition and may be degraded. The array disk may have reported the error condition in response to a consistency check or other operation.

    Action: Replace the degraded array disk. You can identify which disk is degraded by locating the disk that has a red "X" for its status. Perform a rescan after replacing the disk.

    903

    503

    2052

    Array disk inserted

    OK/Normal/ Informational

    Cause: This alert is provided for informational purposes.

    Action: None.

    901

    504

    2053

    Virtual disk created

    OK/Normal/ Informational

    Cause: This alert is provided for informational purposes.

    Action: None.

    1201

    505

    2054

    Virtual disk deleted

    Warning / Non-critical

    Cause: A virtual disk has been deleted. "Performing a Reset Configuration" may detect that a virtual disk has been deleted and generate this alert.

    Action: None.

    1203

    506

    2055

    Virtual disk configuration changed

    OK/Normal/ Informational

    Cause: This alert is provided for informational purposes.

    Action: None.

    1201

    507

    2056

    Virtual disk failed

    Critical / Failure / Error

    Cause: One or more physical disks included in the virtual disk have failed. If the virtual disk is non-redundant (does not use mirrored or parity data), then the failure of a single physical disk can cause the virtual disk to fail. If the virtual disk is redundant, then more physical disks have failed than can be rebuilt using mirrored or parity information.

    Action: Create a new virtual disk and restore from a backup.

    1204

    508

    2057

    Virtual disk degraded

    Warning / Non-critical

    Cause 1: This alert message occurs when a physical disk included in a redundant virtual disk fails. Because the virtual disk is redundant (uses mirrored or parity information) and only one physical disk has failed, the virtual disk can be rebuilt.

    Action 1: Configure a hot spare for the virtual disk if one is not already configured. Rebuild the virtual disk. When using a PowerEdge RAID Controller (PERC) 2/SC, 3/SC, 2/DC, 3/DCL, 3/DC, 3/QC, 4/SC, 4/DC, 4e/DC, 4/Di, 5/E or CERC ATA100/4ch controller, rebuild the virtual disk by first configuring a hot spare for the disk, and then initiating a write operation to the disk. The write operation will initiate a rebuild of the disk.

    Cause 2: A physical disk in the array has been removed.

    Action 2: If a physical disk was removed from the array, either replace the disk or restore the original disk. You can identify which disk has been removed by locating the disk that has a red "X" for its status. Perform a rescan after replacing the disk.

    901

    527

    2067

    Virtual disk check consistency cancelled

    OK/Normal/ Informational

    Cause: The check consistency operation cancelled because a physical disk in the array has failed or because a user cancelled the check consistency operation.

    Action: If the physical disk failed, then replace the physical disk. You can identify which disk failed by locating the disk that has a red "X" for its status. Perform a rescan after replacing the disk. When performing a consistency check, be aware that the consistency check can take a long time. The time it takes depends on the size of the physical disk or the virtual disk.

    1201

    529

    2070

    Virtual disk initialization cancelled

    OK/Normal/ Informational

    Cause: The virtual disk initialization cancelled because a physical disk included in the virtual disk has failed or because a user cancelled the virtual disk initialization.

    Action: If a physical disk failed, then replace the physical disk. You can identify which disk has failed by locating the disk that has a red "X" for its status. Perform a rescan after replacing the disk. Restart the format array disk operation. Restart the virtual disk initialization.

    1201

    2094

    Predictive Failure reported. If this disk is part of a redundant virtual disk, select the `Offline' option and then replace the disk. Then configure a hot spare and it will start the rebuild automatically. If this disk is a hot spare, select the `Prepare to Remove' option and then replace the disk. If this disk is part of a non-redundant disk, you should back up your data immediately. If the disk fails, you will not be able to recover the data.

    Warning / Non-critical

    Cause: The array disk is predicted to fail. Many array disks contain Self Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.). When enabled, SMART monitors the health of the disk based on indications such as the number of write operations that have been performed on the disk.

    Action: Replace the array disk. Even though the disk may not have failed yet, it is strongly recommended that you replace the disk. Review the message text for additional information.

    903

    570

    2095

    SCSI sense data. If this disk is part of a redundant virtual disk, select the `Offline' option and then replace the disk. Then configure a hot spare and it will start the rebuild automatically. If this disk is a hot spare, select the `Prepare to Remove' option and then replace the disk. If this disk is part of a non-redundant disk, you should back up your data immediately. If the disk fails, you will not be able to recover the data.

    Warning / Non-critical

    Cause: An array disk has failed, is corrupt, or is otherwise experiencing a problem.

    Action: Replace the array disk. Even though the disk may not have failed yet, it is strongly recommended that you replace the disk. Review the message text for additional information.

    Global hot spare assigned

    OK/Normal/ Informational

    Cause: A user has assigned an array disk as a global hot spare. This alert is provided for informational purposes.

    Action: None.

    901

    574

    2099

    Global hot spare unassigned

    OK/Normal/ Informational

    Cause: An array disk that was assigned as a hot spare has been unassigned and is no longer functioning as a hot spare. The array disk may have been unassigned by a user or automatically unassigned by Storage Management. Storage Management unassigns hot spares that have been used to rebuild data. Once data is rebuilt onto the hot spare, the hot spare becomes a member of the virtual disk and is no longer assigned as a hot spare. You need to assign a new hot spare to maintain data protection in this situation.

    On the PERC 2/Si, 3/Si, 3/Di, CERC SATA1.5/6ch, and Cost Effective Raid Controller (CERC) Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA)1.5/2s controllers, if you use another application such as the Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) to include a hot spare in a virtual disk, then Storage Management unassigns the array disk as a hot spare.

    Action: Although this alert is provided for informational purposes, you may need to assign a new hot spare to the virtual disk.

    Smart warning temperature

    Warning / Non-critical

    Cause: A disk has reached an unacceptable temperature and received a SMART alert (predictive failure). The disk is likely to fail in the near future.

    First Action: Determine why the array disk has reached an unacceptable temperature. A variety of factors can cause the excessive temperature. For example, a fan may have failed, the thermostat may be set too high, or the room temperature may be too hot or cold. Verify that the fans in the server or enclosure are working. If the array disk is in an enclosure, you should check the thermostat settings and examine whether the enclosure is located near a heat source. Make sure the enclosure has enough ventilation and that the room temperature is not too hot. See the enclosure documentation for more diagnostic information.

    903

    588

     

     

     

    Second Action: If you cannot identify why the disk has reached an unacceptable temperature, then replace the disk. If the array disk is a member of a non-redundant virtual disk, then back up the data before replacing the disk. Removing an array disk that is included in a non-redundant virtual disk will cause the virtual disk to fail and may cause data loss.

    2112

    Enclosure was shut down

    Critical / Failure / Error

    Cause: The array disk enclosure is either hotter or cooler than the maximum or minimum allowable temperature range.

    Action: Check for factors that may cause overheating or excessive cooling. For example, verify that the enclosure fan is working. You should also check the thermostat settings and examine whether the enclosure is located near a heat source. Make sure the enclosure has enough ventilation and that the room temperature is not too hot or too cold. See the enclosure documentation for more diagnostic information.
