■Sun Explorer Data Collector utility

You can use the results of the Sun Explorer Data Collector utility to capture most of the host based information, as well as other system configuration information. For more details and to download this tool refer to http://sunsolve.sun.com and select the Explorer Data Collector link. The output from this tool is essential if you need a service call.

After you have gathered relevant information, a service action can be generated and Service Personnel dispatched on site for parts replacement if necessary. Contact Sun Service for the appropriate service steps.

Storage Software

You can achieve the best troubleshooting results with a combination of the resources listed above, as well as by using the Network Storage Agent software and Stortools.

■Network Storage Agent is an online monitoring and reporting utility that is used to track the status of SAN components. At a basic level, Network Storage Agent monitors the health of the SAN and generates alerts or events when problems are detected. You can also use it to check patch/firmware revision levels. You can configure it to email or page the administrator in the event of problem detection.

■Stortools is an offline diagnostic tool used for troubleshooting and fault isolation. After alerts or events are generated by Network Storage Agent, Stortools (via Stortools Functional and Expert testing modes) helps isolate the suspect component and assists in verifying the correct operation of the new Field Replaceable Unit (FRU).

Use both Network Storage Agent and Stortools for system installation verification and testing at the time of initial system install.
