Table 15. Dell EMC host health
Information Description
Dell EMC Host Health Component health is a graphical representation of the status of
all major host server components: Server Global status, Server,
Power supply, Temperature, Voltages, Processors, Batteries,
Intrusion, Hardware log, Power management, Power and
Memory. The chassis health parameters are applicable for models
VRTX version 1.0 and later, M1000e version 4.4 and later. For
versions less than 4.3 only two health indicators are displayed,
namely Healthy and Warning or Critical (Inverted triangle with an
exclamatory mark in orange color). The overall health indicates
the health based on the chassis with the least health parameter.
The options include:
• Healthy (green check mark)—component operating normally
• Warning (yellow triangle with exclamation point)—
component has a noncritical error.
• Critical (red X)—component has a critical failure.
• Unknown (question mark)—status is unknown for the
component.
For example, if there are five healthy signs and one warning sign, the overall health is shown as warning.
