Fault management and diagnostics

WEBES must be installed to ensure proper customer alerts for their EVA products.
WEBES can be used as part of the HP ISEE remote service offering. Or, for those customers who do
not wish to have remote support, it can be configured to send a local notification (e-mail) to a
customer-identified account only. The e-mail option is also available to the customer when ISEE is
used.
WEBES is a powerful service tool that provides real-time diagnosis of hardware events ranging from
single errors (or faults) to multiple event correlation and complex analysis. It is designed to send a
notification only when an event or series of events has occurred that requires a service action.
A Service Tools CD is included with the HP Command View EVA package. However, it is always best
to check the HP website for the latest updates.
The latest WEBES kit can be downloaded from the following URL:
