8 System Monitoring and Diagnostics
Avid ISIS Management Console provides tools for logging, monitoring, and system diagnostics.
Hardware Monitoring Service
The Hardware Monitoring service runs on all ISIS | 5500 Engines, and to a limited extent on ISIS | 2500. It
periodically polls certain critical components on the Engine and reports status to the System Director. The System
Director then makes this status available to the Management Console. Errors and warnings are indicated in the
System Status Console. Expand the Status Console panel to view what component that is causing the error or
warning.
These status messages inform you of system issues that might not be obvious because in most cases the ISIS system
can continue to function. The issues should be corrected so that a more serious failure does not occur. The
components and messages that are displayed in the Status Console panel are listed in the following table.
