Table 21 Severity Levels
Assigned to Issues
Severity Level Description
1 (Failed) Indicates that a failure has occurred or a differ
ent serious condition exists within a
library subsystem that requires immediate corrective action. In most cases, a
hardware component is no longer functioning at an acceptable level or has failed.
Typical library operations are either impossible or highly unreliable.
Examples of failure situations include a FRU that
is not functioning, a temperature
threshold that has been reached that causes unreliable operations, or a partition that
the library has automatically taken offline.
2 (Degraded) Indicates that a degraded condition exists within a library subsystem that impacts
system p
erformance or redundancy. Typical library operations can continue
without immediate corrective action, but an administrator should investigate the
condition and correct the problem soon.
Examples of degraded situations
include a redundant power supply that has failed
or a connectivity problem that has caused host port failover to occur.
3 (Warning) Indicates that a condition exists within a library subsystem that has little effect on
sy
stem operations. Typical library operations can continue without immediate
corrective action, but you should investigate the condition and correct the problem
when possible. Warnings also can provide helpful information, such as indicating
that a door is open.
Examples of warning situations
include a FRU that is functioning less reliably or a
temperature threshold that has been reached that does not affect reliable operations.

Setting Up E-mail Notifications
Scalar i6000 User’s Guide 168
The body text in the e-mail notification provides details about the issue
and library conditions at the time of the event. The e-mail notification also
includes an attachment, referred to as a repair page, that provide a
problem description and corrective actions you or a customer service
engineer (CSE) can perform. For more information about e-mail
notifications, see
Understanding E-mail Notifications on page 41.
To set up e-mail recipients for notifications, per
form the following steps:
1 Log on
as an administrator.
2 Ma
ke sure that you are viewing the physical library. From the View
menu, click the name of the physical library.
