This monitor regularly checks for the overall health state of
a storage device
on the given system.
This monitor reports hardware problems of
the storage device
that occurred before the system started being monitored. It
also determines whether to close the pending alerts associated with
the storage device,
or reset the state of the monitors for
the storage device.
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 hardware event with this monitor is available only on an Lenovo system
with the appropriate hardware sensors and with a management controller
(also called a Service Processor), such as Integrated Management Module
(IMM), Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), Remote Supervisor Adapter
(RSA), or an equivalent management controller on an older Lenovo system.
This monitor depends on hardware instrumentation software, namely the
IBM Director Platform Agent (also called Core Services) and the Intelligent
Platform Management Interface (IPMI) driver stack. This software raises
the hardware event to the WMI level, so that the monitor can be notified.
On certain configurations, the RSA daemon can be used in place of, or
in parallel with, the IPMI driver stack. See the "Additional Information"
section below for more information about Lenovo Director Platform Agent,
the IPMI driver stack and the RSA daemon.
Causes
Details about the cause of the hardware problems of
the storage device
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 storage device.
Resolutions
Review the health checkup report's details
about the storage device.
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.
