Managing And Monitoring - Fujitsu IRF-1S series User Manual

Chapter 4

Managing and Monitoring

In this chapter you will find information about using the enclosure's onboard
monitoring systems. It also contains the procedures to update the enclosure's SES
Controller card firmware.
Using a VT-100 terminal (or emulation) connected to the SES RS-232 Service port
provides an interface to the enclosure's monitoring system and firmware. If you
are using StorView, refer to the StorView software guide for details on the
GUI-based monitoring and how the interface works in conjunction with the
enclosure monitoring components.
You should monitor your storage system regularly to ensure that the disk drives,
controllers, arrays, and enclosure components are working properly. The front
bezel LEDs provide monitoring information for the enclosure components, fan
status, disk drive status, controller status, and array monitoring. The "One-Touch
Annunciation" Configuration Display provides information about switch settings,
Host I/O card, Disk I/O card, and controller presence, all from the touch of the
reset button.
Enclosure Component Monitoring
This section covers notifications provided by the front bezel LEDs and a detailed
explanation of the "One-Touch Annunciation" Configuration Display system.
As part of the monitoring notifications, an audible alarm works in conjunction
with the enclosure's front bezel LEDs, and will sound an alert for any fault that
occurs with an enclosure component, logical array, or disk drive. To silence the
alarm, simply press the Alarm Reset button.
