Monitoring Enclosure Status
The Universal RAID Utility can monitor enclosure status which the RAID Controller detects by the following means.
RAID Viewer
raidcmd
RAID Log Buzzer OS Log Alert
Depending on type of
RAID Controller
The Universal RAID Utility monitors events of the enclosure detected by the RAID Controller. The Universal RAID Utility
logs detected enclosure events to the RAID Log. In addition, the Universal RAID Utility records important event to the OS
log and sends alerts to the NEC ESMPRO Manager.
The RAID Viewer and raidcmd do not indicate the severity of events in this category to Tree View and the property of
RAID System.
See " Appendix C : Logs/Events " for detail about the event of enclosure.
Monitoring Various Events of RAID System
The Universal RAID Utility can monitor other events which the RAID Controller detects by the following means.
RAID Viewer
raidcmd
RAID Log Buzzer OS Log Alert
Depending on type of
RAID Controller
The Universal RAID Utility monitors various events of the RAID System as well as failures of Physical Devices, Battery
events and enclosure events described above. The Universal RAID Utility logs events detected in the RAID System to the
RAID Log. In addition, the Universal RAID Utility records important events to the OS log and send alerts to the NEC
ESMPRO Manager.
The RAID Viewer and raidcmd do not indicate the severity of events in this category to Tree View and the property of
RAID System.
See " Appendix C : Logs/Events " for detail about the various event of RAID System.
Replacing Physical Device for Prevention
If Physical Devices support S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) and the RAID Controller can
detects S.M.A.R.T. errors, the Universal RAID Utility can monitor the S.M.A.R.T. errors by the following means.
RAID Viewer
raidcmd
RAID Log Buzzer OS Log Alert
Depending on type of
RAID Controller
The Universal RAID Utility monitors S.M.A.R.T. errors occurred in Physical Devices. Detecting a S.M.A.R.T. error, the
Universal RAID Utility logs the event to the RAID Log. In addition, the Universal RAID Utility reflects the status of
S.M.A.R.T. in a Physical Device as the status of the Physical Device (by changing the status of the Physical Device to
[Detected]). The status of the Physical Device is retained as its status until the S.M.A.R.T. error is solved.
