data for reporting and graphing. HP-SIM also provides base-level management of HP clients, printers, and selected storage. HP recommends using HP-SIM to monitor the performance of your Windows, Linux, and NetWare systems. IMPORTANT: You must install and use HP-SIM to benefit from the Pre-Failure Warranty for processors, SAS, SCSI, and SATA hard drives, and memory modules. HP-SIM can monitor the following MSA controller parameters: • CPU usage • Total number of read and write commands processed • Average time to process a read or write command HP-SIM can monitor the following LUN parameters: • Total I/O count • Number of read and write requests • Number of sectors read or written For more information, see the Management CD in the HP ProLiant Essentials Foundation Pack or the HP-SIM web site: http://www.hp.com/go/hpsim. HP Storage Management Initiative Specification (SMIS) overview The Storage Management Initiative Specification (SMIS) is a new standard developed by the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA). The HP StorageWorks MSA-specific SMIS (MSA SMIS) provides the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) interface for the management of HP StorageWorks MSA arrays. SMIS MSA can be installed on any host running Microsoft Windows 2000 or Windows 2003 Server. Note that this host must have a path through the SAN to the devices that are to be managed. For more information about SMIS, go to the HP SMIS website: http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/ smis.html For more information about DMTF SNIA listings of HP SMIS providers, see the SNIA website: http://www.snia.org/ctp/smi_conform System Event Analyzer (SEA) overview System Event Analyzer is a host-based fault analysis utility included with the Web-Based Service Enterprise (WEBES) service tools. Each WEBES service tool adds functionality to the Directory, a process (or set of processes) that executes continuously. SEA provides the Director with the capability of capturing and interpreting hardware events. The analysis of events can be performed automatically or when requested by an outside process. SEA provides background automatic analysis by monitoring the active binary event log (also called the system event log or error log) and processing events as they occur. The events in the binary event log file are checked against the analysis rules. If one or more of the events in the binary event log file meets the conditions specified in the rules, the analysis engine collects the error data and creates a problem report containing a description of the problem and any corrective actions required. After the problem report is created, it is distributed in accordance with the customer's notification preferences. SEA features: • Error event analysis and translation • Multi-event correlation (view events, traps, etc.) maintenance and service guide 33

System Event Analyzer (SEA) overview
System Event Analyzer is a host-based fault analysis utility included with the Web-Based Service Enterprise

interpreting hardware events. The analysis of events can be performed automatically or when requested
by an outside process.
SEA provides background automatic analysis by monitoring the active binary event log (also called the
