Usage Guidelines The Node Health Manager in the WAAS software enables WAAS applications to raise alarms to draw
attention in error/significant conditions. The Node Health Manager, which is the data repository for such
alarms, aggregates the health and alarm information for the applications, services, and resources (for
example, disk drives) that are being monitored on the WAAS device. For example, this feature gives you
a mechanism to determine if a WAE is receiving overwhelming number of alarms. These alarms are
referred to as WAAS software alarms.
The WAAS software uses SNMP to report error conditions by generating SNMP traps. The following
WAAS applications can generate a WAAS software alarm:
critical Displays critical alarm information.
detail (Optional) Displays detailed information for each alarm.
support (Optional) Displays additional information about each alarm.
history Displays information about the history of various alarms.
start_num (Optional) Alarm number that appears first in the alarm history.
end_num (Optional) Alarm number that appears last in the alarm history.
major Displays information about major alarms.
minor Displays information about minor alarms.
status Displays the status of various alarms and alarm overload settings.
