Dell MD3600I, MD3620I owner manual 239, Additional Status Icons Description

In the Table view, every managed storage array is listed once, regardless of the number of attachments it has in the Tree view. After the storage array has been contacted by MDSM, an icon representing its hardware status appears. Hardware status can be Optimal, Needs Attention, or Fixing. If, however, all of the network management connections from the storage management station to the storage array shown in the Tree view are Unresponsive, the storage array status is represented as Unresponsive.

In the EMW Status Bar and the AMW Status Bar, the icons also have these behaviors:

•Hold the mouse over the icon in the EMW Status Bar and the AMW Status Bar to show a tooltip with a brief description of the status.

•The icons for the Needs Attention status and Unresponsive status appear in EMW Status Bar and the AMW Status Bar if there are discovered storage arrays with either condition.

The EMW Tree view has additional status icons that are shown in the following table.

Table 19-3. Additional Status Icons
