Regular health checkup monitor for Lenovo management packs compatibility
Knowledge Base article:
Summary
This monitor watches for a BladeCenter event that indicates that there are incompatible versions of the Hardware Management Pack
installation packages installed on the local management server and running on the Operations Manager.
This monitor reports hardware Lenovo BladeCenter management module problems that occurred before the system started being monitored.
It also determines whether to close the pending alerts associated with the module, or to reset the state of the monitors for the module.
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.
You can also change the interval between the health checkups by overriding the value of
the "IntervalSeconds" parameter of the monitor. See the "Override" topic in the Operations
Manager's Operations User's Guide.
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
The version of the Hardware Management Pack installation package support libraries on the local management server is not compatible
with the version of the Hardware Management Pack running on Operations Manager.
Details about the cause of the hardware problems of
the module
are recorded in the alerts and in the state change record.The latest state of this monitor reflects the severity level of the most
recent overall health state of
the module.
Resolutions
Install the same (or a compatible) version of the Hardware Management Pack installation package on the local management server to enable
the local management server to correctly communicate the health states and alerts of the BladeCenter(s) to Operations Managers.
Review the health checkup report's details
about the given module.
Contact Lenovo support (see links below) if the reports or relevant articles do not provide enough
information to help you resolve the hardware problem.
After the hardware problem is resolved, the overall health state of this monitor is automatically restored
to the Healthy state. However, you must manually close any corresponding alerts that might have occurred.
