Event Notification

When an error occurs in the ETERNUS DX, the event notification function notifies the event information to the
administrator. The administrator can be informed that an error occurred without monitoring the screen all
the time.
The methods to notify an event are e-mail, SNMP Trap, Syslog, remote support, and host sense.
The notification methods and levels can be set as required.
E-mail
•
When an event occurs, an e-mail is sent to the specified e-mail address.
SNMP Trap
•
Using the SNMP agent function, management information is sent to the SNMP manager (monitoring serv-
er).
Syslog
•
By registering the Syslog destination server in the ETERNUS DX, various events that are detected by the
ETERNUS DX are sent to the Syslog server as event logs.
Remote support
•
The errors that occur in the ETERNUS DX are notified to the remote support center. Additional information
(logs and system configuration information) for checking the error is also sent. This shortens the time to
collect information.
Host sense
•
The ETERNUS DX returns host senses (sense codes) to notify specific status to the server. Detailed informa-
tion such as error contents can be obtained from the sense code.
Using the ETERNUS Multipath Driver to monitor the storage system by host senses is recommended. Sense
codes that cannot be detected in a single configuration can also be reported.
