• Time. Date and time when the event occurred, shown as year-month-day hour:minutes:seconds in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Time stamps have one-second granularity. • Event ID. An identifier for the event. The prefix A or B identifies the controller that logged the event. • Code. Event code that helps you and support personnel diagnose problems. For event-code descriptions and recommended actions, see the event descriptions reference guide. • Message. Information about the event. NOTE: If you are having a problem with the system or a vdisk, check the event log before calling technical support. Event messages might enable you to resolve the problem. When reviewing events, do the following: 1. For any critical, error, or warning events, look for recommended actions in the event descriptions reference guide. Identify the primary events and any that might be the cause of the primary event. For example, an over-temperature event could cause a disk failure. 2. View the event log and locate other critical/error/warning events in the sequence for the controller that reported the event. Repeat this step for the other controller if necessary. 3. Review the events that occurred before and after the primary event. During this review you are looking for any events that might indicate the cause of the critical/error/warning event. You are also looking for events that resulted from the critical/error/warning event, known as secondary events. 4. Review the events following the primary and secondary events. You are looking for any actions that might have already been taken to resolve the problems reported by the events. Viewing information about all vdisks In the Configuration View panel, right-click Vdisks and select View > Overview. The Vdisks Overview table shows the overall health, quantity, capacity, and space usage of existing vdisks. For descriptions of storage-space color codes, see About storage-space color codes on page 33. For each vdisk, the Vdisks table shows the following details: • Health. OK. The vdisk is online with all disks working. Degraded. The vdisk is being reconstructed, as shown by its Current Job property; or, a RAID-6 vdisk has degraded performance due to one missing disk but remains fault tolerant. You can use a degraded RAID-6 vdisk but resolve the problem as soon as possible. Fault. The vdisk can perform I/O functions for hosts but is not fault tolerant. Review the status information and take the appropriate action, such as replacing a disk. You can use the vdisk but resolve the problem as soon as possible. N/A. Health is not available. • Name. Vdisk name. • Size. Total storage space in the vdisk. • Free. Available space in the vdisk. • RAID. RAID level of the vdisk and all of its volumes. HP P2000 G3 MSA System SMU Reference Guide 91
