26 Event Message Reference
Redundancy Unit Messages
Redundancy means that a system chassis has more than one of certain critical components. Fans and
power supplies, for example, are so important for preventing damage or disruption of a system that a
chassis may have “extra” fans or power supplies installed. Redundancy allows a second or nth fan to keep
the chassis components at a safe temperature when the primary fan has failed. Redundancy is normal
when the intended number of critical components are operating. Redundancy is degraded when a
component fails but others are still operating. Redundancy is lost when the number of components
functioning falls below the redundancy threshold.
Ta b le 2-7 lists the redundancy unit messages.
The number of devices required for full redundancy is provided as part of the message when applicable
for the redundancy unit and the platform. For details on redundancy computation, see
the respective
platform documentation.
1254 Chassis intrusion detected
Sensor location:
<Location in chassis>
Chassis location:
<Name of chassis>
Previous state was:
<State>
Chassis intrusion state:
<Intrusion
state>
Error A chassis intrusion sensor in the
specified system detected that
the system cover was opened
while the system was operating.
The sensor location, chassis
location, previous state, and
