Monitoring Events Menu - IBM V7000 Introduction And Implementation Manual

5.3.2 Monitoring Events menu

IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node might, from time to time, show the Health Status
status bar as Yellow (Degraded) or even Red (Critical). Events on the IBM Flex System V7000
Storage Node system are logged in the Event Log of the Monitoring Events menu.
An example of one of the most common errors that can be reviewed and fixed from the Event
Log is the error 1630 "Number of Device Logins Reduced". This error happens when an
underlying disk array loses connectivity through one or more of its ports that are zoned to and
connected to IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node. A few possible reasons for that could be
a faulty Fibre Channel connection, a SAN-switch that was rebooted, or if an underlying disk
array controller was taken out for service.
Such events are logged as errors and need to be fixed before IBM Flex System V7000
Storage Node recovers out of the error condition it was in, due to the event.
To navigate to the Event Log, hover the cursor over the Monitoring icon and click Events
(Figure 5-18).
