Important:
To maintain a trace of transient faults, PAM Tree functional and/or presence status indicators
will not change color until the domain has been powered OFF/ON, even if the error has
been corrected. Overall server functional status is indicated by the system Functional Status
icon in the Status pane. For further details, see What to Do if an Incident Occurs, on page
4-42.
Note:
If, when you toggle the PAM Tree to view hardware functional status, the functional status of
a hardware element is not normal, the Hardware Monitor node will automatically expand to
the level of the malfunctioning hardware element, as shown in Figure 62.
