Temperature sensors
Temperature sensors throughout the enclosure and its components monitor the thermal health of the storage system.
Exceeding the limits of critical values causes a notification to occur.
Host I/O
When troubleshooting disk drive and connectivity faults, stop I/O to the affected disk groups from all hosts as a data protection
precaution. As an additional data protection precaution, it is helpful to conduct regularly scheduled backups of your data. See
Shutting down attached hosts on page 44.
