Setting local events
Complete the following steps to select the local events to which the Remote
Supervisor Adapter or ASM processor will respond:
1. Log in to the Remote Supervisor Adapter where you want to set local events.
For more information, see Chapter 2, “Opening and using the ASM Web
interface” on page 3.
2. For an xSeries 330 server: Log in to the ASM processor. For more information,
see “Remote Supervisor Adapter and ASM processor action descriptions”on
page 7.
3. In the navigation pane, click Alerts and scroll down to the Monitored Local
Events section.
4. Select the events that you want to store in the event log. The Remote
Supervisor Adapter and ASM processor store the notification only in the event
log.
Local events are generated for events sent to IBM Director, if it is installed, on
the server where the ASM subsystem resides. These events are not sent to
remote alert recipients. If the Select all local events check box is selected, an
alert can be sent for any local event.
Table6. Local events
Event Action
Event log 75% full Generates a local notification if the event log reaches 75% of
capacity.
Voltage irregularity Generates a local notification if any of the monitored voltages
exceed their thresholds.
Power off Generates a local notification if the server is powered off.
Power supply failure Generates a local notification if a power supply failure is
detected.
Event log full Generates a local notification if the event log reaches its
capacity.At capacity, the oldest events are deleted.
Redundant power supply
failure
Generates a local notification if the redundant power supply
fails.
Tampering Generates a local notification if the server covers are removed.
This feature is only available on some servers.
DASD failure Generates a local notification if any hard disk drive failures are
detected.
Remote login Generates a local notification if a remote login occurs.
Temperatureirregularity Generatesa local notification if any of the monitored
temperatures exceed thresholds.
Fan failure Generates a local notification if one or more cooling fans fail.
PFA notification Generates a local notification if any of the hardware in the
server generates a PFA event.

Configuring the serial port
You can either dedicate the integrated serial port on the Remote SupervisorAdapter
to system management or share it with the server operating system. If dedicated to
system management, the serial port serves only the Remote Supervisor Adapter
and is always available for dial-in and dial-out alerting purposes. You will not be
