Alert monitor for Lenovo Flex System Chassis Node initial failed
Knowledge Base article:
Summary
This monitor watches for a CMM event that indicates that
the initial node setup has failed.
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 Flex System event is delivered to this monitor asynchronously.
There is no monitoring interval to configure for this monitor.
The Flex System event is delivered to this monitor from the CMM (Chassis
Management Module) of the Chassis via the SNMP (Simple Network Management
Protocol) protocol. It also goes through the Flex System runtime support
of the Hardware Management Pack installed on the management server that
was designated to manage the PureFlex System during the Network Device Discovery process.
For the proper Flex System CMM SNMP settings that are required for
the Hardware Management Pack to discover Flex System modules
and report events, consult the Hardware Management Pack's User's Guide.
Causes
When the initial node setup has failed,
the Flex System's CMM 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.
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, 'Node "Instance Number" ' could actually mean "Node 01".
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.
