Alert Types (Continued)
Description
Generated only if you have elected to receive alerts through the Change
Management feature in Fabric Manager. Any alerts generated on switches or
fabrics as defined in your Change Management profile are also displayed in
the Alerts tab. Note the following characteristics:
•
If an alert is triggered by a Change Management profile, the alert status
is updated each time a scheduled Change Management check is run. If
there is no change in the alert status, the original alert is updated
continuously in the Last Occurrence column of the Alerts tab with the
latest unreachable time until the alert is resolved.
•
If you change the baseline Change Management profile that is
configured to trigger alerts, any alerts previously triggered by that
defined baseline profile remain in the Alerts tab but the status is changed
from No to Yes in the Resolved column. Also, the reason for the status
change is updated in the Description column to indicate that it is
resolved because of a baseline change.
See Chapter 9, "Change Management"
types of trigger alerts you can set using Change Management profiles.
Generated when Fabric Manager is trying to capture supportSave or
supportShow information.
•
If the operation succeeds, an info alert is displayed. The alert contains
the location of the log files on the FTP server.
•
If the operation fails, an error alert is displayed. The alert contains the
reason for the failure (for example, if the FTP server does not have
enough space to hold the logs).
Generated when the FDMI data can not be collected. If FDMI data is
collected successfully after failing the previous time, an alert is also
generated.
There must be at least one FDMI-capable switch (a switch running
Fabric OS v3.2.0 or higher) in the fabric for FDMI information to be
collected and for FDMI failure alerts to be generated.
Generated when iSCSI data collection fails because of invalid user
credentials. For successful iSCSI data collection, all iSCSI-capable switches
(switches with an FC4-16IP port blade) must have user credentials in the
Fabric Manager repository.
