HP P6000 manual Configuring event notification, Viewing additional information

Page 55

The following information is provided for each management server event:

•Date/Time—The date and time that the event occurred.

•Severity—The severity types are informational, critical, warning, and undetermined.

•Event Source—Name of the controller on which the event occurred. The name and worldwide ID of all controllers appears at the top of the event log.

•Description—The text description of the event. For more information, see “Viewing additional information” (page 55) and “Event code types and descriptions” (page 96).

•Notified?—Provides event notification status about the event.

•Event Code—A hexadecimal number assigned to the event. For information about how the

nl

hexadecimal number for the event code is formed, see “Event code format” (page 96).

Viewing additional information

You can view additional information for controller and controller termination events by clicking the following links in the event description:

•Corrective action code

•More details

Corrective action code

The corrective action code (CAC) shows you the recommended action to resolve the event. If the event severity is informational, the CAC is 00 and there is no corrective action to take.

More details

Depending on the host operating system, the More details link directs you to open or save the cveva00000x.txt file. This file is generated by the controller and pulls descriptions from various event logs, including the controller port number. For port identifiers, see the Enterprise Virtual Array user guide for your array model.

Configuring event notification

You can configure HP P6000 Command View to send an SNMP-compliant notification to any vendor's SNMP-compliant management product such as Insight Manager, Tivoli, or EMC Patrol. Event logs contain information about events that have occurred. In HP P6000 Command View, you can configure:

•Which EVA events (individually or by severity level) cause a notification to be sent

•Which SNMP-enabled servers will receive P6000 Command View's notifications

For instructions for creating your own event configuration file, see the documentation for your SNMP-compliant product.

Configuring host notification

You can specify the hosts that receive the SNMP traps that the management server generates for events. Any SNMP-enabled host in the same network as the array can be used.

You can enter individual hosts or you can apply a customized host notification list to HP P6000 Command View.

Entering hosts individually

To enter hosts individually:

1.From the Initialized Storage System Properties window, click System options. The System Options window opens.
