EMC SI Storage Pool Status of Shared Folder Alert Rule

EMC.SI.StoragePool.SharedFolder.Alert.Rule (Rule)

Alert when unhealthy shared folders in a pool

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This rule checks the status of all the shared folders within the storage pool and generates an alert if there is an unhealthy state for any of the folders.

Shared folders are folders created on a file system configured on an EMC VNX File or VNXe storage system and exported to clients via one or more network protocols.

Configuration

The alert will contain a list of the first 1024 folders in an unhealthy state along with the health state, health state details and operational status. You can override this Maximum Entities value up to a maximum of 8192 folders. Smaller values will result in more efficient processing and a smaller alert description, which may be of concern if sending alerts via email or messaging systems or a ticketing system.

Causes

An unhealthy state occurs if an unhealthy state occurs for one or more shared folders in the storage pool. An unhealthy state occurs if the underlying file system becomes unavailable to the storage system or the storage system software has a logical failure.

Resolutions

Check and resolve any issues with the underlying file system or a storage system software failure.
