Fujitsu manual 221, Status display for individual HDDs IRMC S2/S3

Sensors - Check status of the sensors

Entries with Designation "iRMC", "Agent", "BIOS", or "VIOM"

Entries with the Designation "iRMC", "Agent", "BIOS", or "VIOM" indicate that the iRMC S2/S3, the agent, the BIOS, or VIOM has detected an error. It does not mean that the iRMC S2/S3, the agent, the BIOS, or VIOM itself is defective.

Entries with Designation "HDD" and "HDD<n>, agentless HDD monitoring ("out-of-band" HDD monitoring)

Entries with the Designation "HDD" or "HDD<n>" (with n = 1, 2, ...) indicate the statuses of Hard Disk Drives (HDD):

–The entry with Designation "HDD" indicates the overall HDD status of the server by summarizing the statuses of the individual HDDs.

The overall HDD status of the server is read and reported to the iRMC S2/S3 by the ServerView agents and the ServerView RAID Manager.

–An entry with Designation "HDD<n>" (where n = 1, 2, ...) indicates the status of an individual HDD.

IPlease note:

–This feature is only supported by the iRMC S3.

–This feature only supported if the managed PRIMERGY server supports the "agentless HDD monitoring" function (also known as "out-of-band HDD monitoring").

If these requirements are met, the HDD<n> status of each individual HDD is reported directly to the iRMC S3, i.e. without using the ServerView agents.
