Checking System Status from the Main Window
Adaptec Storage Manager includes an Event Viewer for at-a-glance system and
event status information. The Event Viewer provides status information and
messages about activity (or events) occurring on your IP SAN. Double-click any
event to see more information in an easier-to-read format.
Warning- and Error-level icons, shown at right, appear next to
components (such as systems and pools) affected by a failure or
error, creating a trail, or rapid fault isolation, that helps you identify
the source of a problem when it occurs. See “Identifying Failed or
Failing Components” on page 148 for more information.
If your IP SAN includes a controller with a temperature sensor, or an enclosure with
an enclosure management device, such as a SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant Enclosure
(SAF-TE) processor, temperature, fan, and power module status is displayed by
status icons in the Physical Device view, as shown in the next figure. These status
icons change color to indicate status (see “What Do the Status Icons Mean?” on
page 119).
For more information, see “Monitoring Status and Activity” on page 115.
