Overall Health Status Of The ESM Log

the report reflects the overall health of the system hardware. For example, Health: OK means that less than 80 percent of the

space allotted for the ESM log is occupied by messages. If 80 percent or more of the allotted space for the ESM log is occupied, the

following caution is displayed:

Health: Non-Critical

If a caution is displayed, resolve all warning and critical severity conditions, and then clear the log.

Omreport System Alertaction Or Omreport Servermodule Alertaction

Use the omreport system alertaction or omreport servermodule alertaction command to view a summary of alert actions that have

been configured for warning and failure events on the system components. Alert actions determine how Server Administrator

responds when a component has a warning or failure event.

The omreport system alertaction or omreport servermodule alertaction command is useful for viewing which alert actions have been

specified for components. To set an alert action for a component, use the omconfig system alertaction or omconfig servermodule

alertaction command. For more information, see omconfig: Managing Components Using The Instrumentation Service.

NOTE: To maintain consistency across the commands, the output format of this command has changed. Change the

user scripts as applicable.
