3ware provides several levels of detail about alarms, errors, and other events.
This information is available through the 3DM web application and the CLI.
On Windows systems, the WinAVAlarm alert utility can also be used to notify
you of events.
The next few pages describe these capabilities.
"Viewing Alarms, Errors, and Other Events" on page 154

Tip:
If you have a supported enclosure, the LEDs on your enclosure may also
provide you with status information about drives. For more information, see
"Enclosure LED Status Indicators" on page 150.
