Displaying Server Status Using The Hardware - Digital Equipment 3100R Series Service Maintenance Manual

DIGITAL ServerWORKS Manager allows the Network or Server Administrator to
perform the following functions on the server:
•
Manage DIGITAL PC print, file, and application servers supported by
DIGITAL servers using a Windows-based graphical user interface (GUI) for
point and click simplicity.
•
Display server component information that provides critical information such
as processor and file system utilization and information about the network
interface.
•
Automatically build a database of the network by Autodiscovering all SNMP
network resources and display the nodes discovered during Autodiscovery
on a color-coded topological map.
•
Poll all network devices at intervals defined by the administrator.
•
Perform an in-depth network analysis to continuously monitor the status of
the network.
•
Set alarms and alerts for specified events on all network devices, as well as
the network itself, to spot problems early and avoid costly downtime.
Refer to the DIGITAL ServerWORKS Manager Overview and Installation Guide
for more information on how to use ServerWORKS Manager to view and be
notified of events on the server.
You can also manage the DIGITAL Server with other SNMP-based managers.
Refer to the DIGITAL ServerWORKS Manager Overview and Installation Guide
for more information.

Displaying Server Status Using the Hardware

There are two types of information displayed when the DIGITAL Server is operating:
•
Normal status messages
•
Error messages
During normal operation, Power-On Self Test (POST) and boot messages are
displayed on the monitor. Some error messages are also displayed by the server
fault status LEDs.
These messages can also be seen by using the DIGITAL ServerWORKS Manager
to monitor the server.
