Sun Microsystems 6900 Series, 3900 Series manual Host Side Troubleshooting

Host Side Troubleshooting

Host-sidetroubleshooting refers to the messages and errors the data host detects. Usually, these messages appear in the /var/adm/messages file.

Storage Service Processor Side Troubleshooting

Storage Service Processor-sideTroubleshooting refers to messages, alerts, and errors that the Storage Automated Diagnostic Environment, running on the Storage Service Processor, detects. You can find these messages by monitoring the following Sun StorEdge 3900 series and the Sun StorEdge 6900 series components:

■Sun StorEdge network FC switch-8 and switch-16 switches

■Virtualization engine

■Sun StorEdge T3+ array

Combining the host side messages and errors and the Storage Service Processor-side messages, alerts, and errors into a meaningful context is essential for proper troubleshooting.
