Appendix A: Event code tables
© Copyright IBM Corp. 2006
An event is a state change, problem detection, or problem correction
that requires attention or should be reported to service personnel. An
event usually indicates an operational state transition, but may also
indicate an impending state change (threshold violation) or provide
information only. Events are reported as event codes. This appendix
lists three-digit event codes. The codes are listed in numerical order
and tabular format as follows:
•
000 through 199 - system events.
•
200 through 299 - power supply events.
•
300 through 399 - fan events.
•
400 through 499 - control processor (CTP) card events.
•
500 through 599 - port events.
•
800 through 899 - thermal sensor events.
Events are recorded in the Event Log at the Enterprise Fabric
Connectivity Manager (EFCM) Basic Edition interface or rack-mount
management server (Element Manager application). An event
illuminates the system error light-emitting diode (LED) at the
product front panel.
Tables in this appendix also provide a:
•
Message - a text string that describes the event.
•
Severity - a severity level that indicates event criticality as
follows:
— 0 - informational.
— 2 - minor.
— 3 - major.
— 4 - severe (not operational).
•
Explanation - an explanation of what caused the event.
•
Action - the recommended action (if any) to resolve the problem.
•
Event data - supplementary event data (if any) that appears in the
event log in hexadecimal format.
•
Distribution - checks in associated fields indicate where the event
code is reported (product, management server, or attached host).
