Working with SIMs
About SIMs
Thin Provisioning Z provide Service Information Messages (SIMs) to report the status of the THP
V-VOLs and pools. The SIM level is Moderate. If an event associated with a pool occurs, a SIM is
output to Remote Web Console to alert the user, and an SNMP trap is reported to the open-systems
host.
An example of a SIM condition is if the actual pool usage rate is 50.1%, but only 50% appears
on in Remote Web Console because the capacity amount is truncated after the decimal point. If
the threshold is set to 50%, a SIM and an SNMP trap are reported, even though the pool usage
rate appearing in Remote Web Console does not indicate the threshold is exceeded.

Automatic completion of a SIM
Some SIMs are completed automatically when you resolve the problem that caused the SIM. SOM
734 must be enabled for automatic completion of a SIM. Automatic completion of a SIM removes
it from the system with no additional manual intervention. After the SIM is automatically completed,
the status of the SIM changes to completed in Remote Web Console in the Confirm window.
