Alert monitor for Lenovo BladeCenter blade incompatible with chassis
Knowledge Base article:
Summary
This monitor watches for a BladeCenter event that indicates that a blade server is incompatible with the Lenovo BladeCenter chassis.
Configuration
You can disable this monitor through the Operations Manager's Operations
Console. See the "Disable monitors" topic in the Operations Manager's
Operations User's Guide for more information.
The BladeCenter event is delivered to this monitor asynchronously.
There is no monitoring interval to configure for this monitor.
The BladeCenter event is delivered to this monitor from the AMM (Advanced
Management Module) of the BladeCenter via the SNMP (Simple Network Management
Protocol) protocol. It also goes through the BladeCenter runtime support
of the Hardware Management Pack installed on the management server that
was designated to manage the BladeCenter during the Network Device Discovery process.
For the proper BladeCenter AMM SNMP settings that are required for
the Hardware Management Pack to discover BladeCenter modules
and report events, consult the Hardware Management Pack's User's Guide.
Causes
When the specified blade server is not compatible with the Lenovo BladeCenter chassis,
the BladeCenter's AMM generates a hardware event. The health state of this monitor is then set to the Critical or Warning state.
For a particular incident, review the history in the State Changes tab. Consult the relevant hardware
knowledge articles listed below, keeping in mind the relevant event data.
The relevant Lenovo hardware knowledge articles are available on a system with the Lenovo Hardware Management Pack
package installed.
Blade "Instance Number" incompatible with chassis
The "Instance Number" can be found as the numeric part of the name/description for an alert or event, and it reflects the number of the bay/module.
For instance, 'Blade "Instance Number" incompatible with chassis' could actually mean "Blade 01 incompatible with chassis".
Resolutions
Review the relevant Lenovo hardware knowledge articles listed above for information about how to resolve the
hardware problem for a particular incident.
The monitor generates an alert when its health state changes to either Critical or Warning.
After the system is running again normally,
the health state will be automatically restored to the Healthy state. Any outstanding corresponding alerts will
also be automatically closed.
