Note Event actions do not distinguish between instances of the same group. This means that event actions are configured
for a "class" of objects (i.e., host adapter) and not on individual instances of the group (i.e., host adapter 1, host
adapter 2).
Switching Views Between the Primary (Managing)
Server and an ICMB Device
To view a different server (ICMB device) in the navigation pane of the PIC main window, do the
following steps:
1. On the PIC Main Menu Bar, click the ICMB->View Managed Server(s) menu selection.
2. A list of ICMB devices is displayed. Select an entry from the list to view.
3. Click <OK>.
The tree in the navigation pane is replaced with information about the new device. At any time you
can change views to another ICMB device by repeating the steps above.
To return your view to the primary server in the navigation pane of the PIC main window, click the
ICMB->View Managing Server menu selection on the PIC Main Menu Bar.

Configuring ICMB on the Primary (Managing) Server

To configure ICMB on the primary (managing) server, do the following steps:
1. On the PIC Main Menu Bar, click the ICMB->View Managing Server menu selection to
switch to the primary server if you are viewing an ICMB device.
2. In the PIC navigation pane, click beside the ICMB component name in the navigation pane.
3. Update the ICMB tab page.
4. Click <Apply> for any changes made to the ICMB configuration.

Configuring the Watchdog Timer Value

Each motherboard supported by PIC has a watchdog timer implemented in the hardware; the timer
is disabled by default. When enabled, the timer continually decrements to test the response of the
server operating system. Under normal operating conditions, the PIC server instrumentation
software periodically resets the time to prevent it from reaching a value of zero. If the OS hangs,
the timer will count down to zero.
If the timer reaches a value of zero, indicating an OS hang, the watchdog timer will reset the
system. The default timer value is two minutes with minimum and maximum allowable settings of
two to sixty minutes.
