Table 5 EMS, WBEM and Evweb events severity values (continued)

Evweb severityWBEM severityEMS severity

7 Critical6 Critical4 Serious

7 Critical7 Fatal/Non-recoverable5 Critical

NOTE:

• Perceived severities in Syslog is same as WBEM severities.

• The WBEM severities are standard. Their number can be seen as the severity value for the

actual events recorded in /var/opt/sfm/log/event.log. The Evweb severity numbering

matches the HP SMH system status. It is one number more than the WBEM severity. However,

HP SMH uses the corresponding severity strings to display the system status, Therefore the

severity string is more important than the severity number.

• Evweb is a plug -in in HP SMH, it adapts Evweb severity to HP SMH. The WBEM severities

description is different from Evweb severities description. The following are the differences in

mapping reasons:

◦ "Fatal/Non-recoverable” in WBEM is regarded as “Critical” in Evweb

◦ "Unknown" in WBEM means that WBEM can get the status of event/entity, and it is NOT

other errors (like, Fatal), so Evweb regards it as “Normal”

◦ "NA" in WBEM means that WBEM cannot get the status of event/entity, so Evweb regards

it as "Unknown".

In the SFM mode although the SFMIndicationProvider is generating the events, the name of the

provider displayed in the event details is one of the following providers mentioned under provider

in Table 4–2, depending on the device to which the event is related. Table 6 (page 40) maps the

EMS Hardware Monitors and the corresponding WBEM providers.
