When a fault occurs, the computer displays a Local Alert message containing a description of the fault and any recommended actions. You can then view current system health by using Compaq Insight Personal Edition. If the computer is connected to a network managed by Compaq Insight Manager or other SNMP-based management products (e.g., HP OpenView or IBM Tivoli TME10 NetView), the computer also sends a fault notice to the network management application. SMART II Hard Drive Fault Prediction The SMART II hard drive monitors hard drive activity to predict failures before they occur. Fault prediction and failure indication parameters, such as abnormal variations in spinup and seek times, or non-correctable read and write errors, are tracked to determine the hard drive condition. Should these errors become significant, the computer displays a warning message. The warning gives you time to back up the hard drive and replace it prior to experiencing downtime or loss of data. The Prefailure Warranty for SMART II hard drives allows you to replace these drives, free of charge, before the drives fail. 2-4 Understanding and Using Intelligent Manageability
