Users Guide

The rmware for the EMM must be at the same level as that of the enclosure. The status of the EMMs is displayed as degraded if

there is a mismatch between the EMM rmware.

To verify the EMM rmware version:

1. In the Server Administrator window, under the system tree, click Storage dashboard.

2. Expand the tree view until the EMMs object is displayed.

3. Select the EMMs object. The rmware version for each EMM is displayed in the Firmware Version column in the right pane.

For information related to the enclosure’s EMMs, see Enclosure Management Modules (EMMs).

Property Denition

Status These icons represent the severity or health of the storage component.

— Normal/OK

— Warning/Non-critical

— Critical/Failure/Error

— Unknown

For more information, see Storage Component Severity.

Name Displays the name of the EMM.

State Displays the current state of the EMMs. Possible values are:

• Ready — EMM is functioning normally.

• Degraded — EMM has encountered a failure and is operating in a

degraded state.

• Failed — EMM has encountered a failure and is no longer

functioning. Storage Management is unable to communicate with the

enclosure using SES commands. The Failed state is displayed when

the enclosure does not respond to a status query from Storage

Management. For example, disconnecting the cable.

• Missing — EMM is not present in the enclosure.

• Not Installed — EMM is not present in the enclosure.

Part Number Displays the part number of the EMM module.

Type Indicates whether the EMM is a SCSI SES Module or a SCSI

Terminator.

SCSI SES Module — A SCSI SES module provides SCSI Enclosure

Services (SES) and SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant Enclosures (SAFTE)

reporting to the host server, control of all system LED indicators, and

monitoring of all environmental elements, such as temperature sensors,

cooling modules, and power supplies.

SCSI Terminator — The SCSI terminator card is only used if the 220S

or 221S enclosure is not congured with a redundant SCSI SES module

type of EMM. In systems equipped with two SCSI SES modules, the

SCSI termination is done through the EMMs.

Firmware Version Indicates the version of the rmware loaded on the EMM. All EMM

modules in the enclosure should have the same level of rmware.
