Monitoring Disk Resources

Creating Disk Monitoring Requests

To configure the EMS alerts, create the following requests on each node:

 

 

Monitoring Parameters

Condition

Option

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

/vg/vg01/pv_summary

when value is...

 

>=

PVG_UP

RETURN

 

 

 

 

 

 

/vg/vg01/lv_summary

when value is...

 

>=

INACTIVE

RETURN

 

 

 

 

 

 

/vg/vg01/lv/copies/*

when value is...

 

<=

1

RETURN

 

 

 

 

 

 

Alerts need to be interpreted in relation to each other. In the table above, you would get an alert when PVG_UP is true. Although all data is available, the condition PVG_UP implies there are physical volumes that are not functioning and need to be fixed.You may want to examine lv/copies to see how many copies of data are accessible and determine how urgently you need to repair the failures. If you have

3-way mirroring and only 1 copy of data is available, for example, you may want to correct the failure immediately to eliminate the single point of failure. Table 2-9 is an example of how the disk monitor determines whether data is available in a mirrored configuration with 5 disks on each bus.
