Alert monitor for Lenovo BladeCenter media module installation or removal

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This monitor watches for a BladeCenter event that indicates that a media module has been installed or removed.

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 media module is installed or removed, the BladeCenter's AMM generates a hardware event. The health state of this monitor is set to the Warning state when the specified media module is removed.

Resolutions

The "Description" for the module's alert data contains descriptive details about the cause. The alert data can be found in the "State Change Events" tab for this module in the Health Explorer. After reviewing the alert, manually reset the health state of this monitor. See the "Reset Health" topic in the Operations Manager's Operations User's Guide for more information. Any outstanding corresponding alerts will be automatically closed when the health state of this monitor returns to the Healthy state.

Additional

For the proper AMM SNMP settings needed for the Hardware Management Pack, see the "Configuring BladeCenter SNMP settings" topic in the Lenovo Hardware Management Pack for Microsoft System Center Operations Manager Installation and User's Guide.
