To monitor the hard disks and detect disk failures at an early stage, use the NEC ESMPRO Manager and Agent. You can see configurations and information of hard disk in the Data Viewer.

Monitoring Operations

This section describes how to maintain hard disks.

1.Confirmation of hard disk failure

If NEC ESMPRO Agent detects some problem with a hard disk, it will report an alert of the problem to NEC ESMPRO Manager. Please check the alert viewer in the manager regularly.

Ex. If a hard disk in SCSI Slot (10/40/1) is broken, agent reports the following alert.

Device 10/40/1 is now BROKEN.

And manager displays the problem information of the hard disk in the [SCSI enclosure]

[SCSI Slot] → [General] of the data viewer.
