Setting Up the Hardware Event Monitor (HP-UX

Only)

Hardware event monitors run on HP-UX hosts, versions 10.20 and later. The Disk

Monitor (disk_em) monitors all disks bound to sdisk drivers. Consequently, if the

Disk Monitor is active on your host, it is already set up to monitor the disks of a new

disk system. If you need to install or activate the Disk Monitor, refer to the EMS

Hardware Monitors User’s Guide in the latest IPR Support Media or on the Web

(http://www.docs.hp.com/hpux/diag/).

The way you configure the monitor determines, among other things, where event

messages will be sent and what level of severity will be reported.

Configuration Overview

The following steps will help you identify and resolve disk system failures:

1 Gather information from all sources:

– Hardware event notifications (page 25)

– Disk system LED status (page 25)

– Online information tools (page 26)

2 Isolate the cause of the problem (Table 7 on page 30).

3 Correct the problem. (See page 19 for disk module removal and replacement.)

4 Verify operational status with ioscan or other host utilities.

Note This Disk Monitor should not be confused with the EMS disk

monitor that is used to monitor LVM resources.
