When the Displayed BIOS Information is Incorrect

Additional information of BIOS which is displayed by clicking [ft] - [CPU Module] - a CPU module - [General] - [BIOS Information] on a Data Viewer or by clicking a CPU module and clicking [BIOS Information] on Server Maintenance Utility may not be displayed correctly. In such a case, display the BIOS information on a Data Viewer by clicking [ESMMIB] - [BIOS].



Ethernet Adapters You Do Not Use

If an Ethernet adapter is not used (not connected to cable), set it to “Disable” in [Network Connections] from Control Panel. If an Ethernet adapter you are about to disable has dual LAN settings (AFT function), remove the dual LAN settings before disable it.



Monitoring in Sleep State

NEC ESMPRO Manager cannot monitor the NEC ESMPRO Agent machine in the sleep state (system standby or system halt state).

While NEC ESMPRO Manager monitors server shutdown, the relevant NEC ESMPRO Agent machine may be entered into the sleep state. If so, the report "server access disabled" is issued and the status color of the server icon becomes gray. This cannot indicate whether the NEC ESMPRO Agent machine is shut down or entered into the sleep state. Keep these in mind when operating the system where systems to be monitored may enter the sleep state.



Hang of SNMP Service

SNMP Service has a module called “SNMP Extended Agent.” This module may be registered when you install some software that uses SNMP Service.

If you start SNMP Service, SNMP Extended Agent is also loaded at the initialization. However, if the initialization is not completed within a specified period, SNMP Service will hang.

It may take time to complete the initialization due to temporary high load on the system. In this case, wait for the system load become low enough before restarting SNMP Service.



SCSI Status on a Data Viewer

“Unknown” is always displayed for the following items:

„“Serial Number,” “Firmware Revision” and “ROMBIOS Revision” in “General” of “SCSI Adapter”

„“Reassign Block Count” and “Reassign Block threshold” in “General” of “SCSI Slot”



SCSI Status while IO Module is Starting or being Stopped

While an IO module is starting or being stopped, the status of SCSI adapters, SCSI bus, SCSI enclosure, SCSI slots, and mirror disks temporarily indicates an undefined status. Once the module is started or stopped, the status will return to normal.
