Hot fix application SVIM applies an "emergency" level hot fix for the operating system. This
- SVOM (ServerView Operations Manager)
SVOM reliably detects hardware faults, displays errors on the console, and sends e-mail to the administrator
to support early recovery and stable operation.
- ServerView Agent (SV Agent)
SV Agent monitors the status of hardware and the operating system, and executes operation instructions from
SVOM.
- ServerView RAID Manager (SV RAID)
SV RAID is the management tool that monitors, manages, maintains, and configures the array controller and
the hard disks and logical drives connected to the array controller.
- ServerView Mission Critical Option (SVmco) (provided only with the PRIMEQUEST 1800E2)
SVmco in linkage with SV Agent detects hardware abnormalities on a partition. SVmco in linkage with the
MMB notifies the REMCS about those abnormalities. SVmco also provides the information display function
and tools that support maintenance work.
The HDD RAID configuration is generally set by the RAID configuration tool
(webBIOS) that starts at the power-on time of the server where the operating
system is installed.
SVIM users can easily configure a RAID by simply entering information such
as the RAID type, combination of HDDs, and spares, even if they do not have
any knowledge about how to operate the RAID configuration tool. They can
also set the capacity of each partition.
General-purpose drivers and model-specific drivers exist even for the same
hardware. SVIM selects and installs the best-fit driver for each model, so that
the drivers do not cause any problems after operation begins.
SVIM supports installation of the high-reliability tools, including the hardware
monitoring tool (ServerView) and RAID management/monitoring tool (SV
RAID) that must be installed. Once a selection is made from the group of
software products, SVIM automatically installs the selected tool from the CD/
DVD.
prevents the occurrence of known faults and promotes stable operation.
