To check if the indication providers are loaded properly, complete the following
steps :
Cause 5
The indication providers are not
loaded properly.
1. Open the /var/opt/sfm/conf/FMLoggerConfig.xml file.
2. Using an editor, change the severity of logs from WARNING to
INFORMATIONAL.
3. Enter the /opt/sfm/bin/sfmconfig command with the
/var/opt/sfm/conf/FMLoggerConfig.xml option:
# /opt/sfm/bin/sfmconfig -c
/var/opt/sfm/conf/FMLoggerConfig.xml
4. Enter the following command to generate a sample indication:
# /etc/opt/resmon/lbin/send_test_event <monitor_name>
For example:
# /etc/opt/resmon/lbin/send_test_event disk_em
Events generated by the disk_em monitor are translated into indications and
reported to the CMS. You can view these indications in the Events List.
NOTE: You can create sample indications using only those monitors that are
supported on your system. For the list of monitors supported on your system,
see the EMS Wrapper provider Data Sheet posted at: http://www.hp.com/
go/hpux-diagnostics-docs
5. Open the /var/opt/sfm/log/sfm.log file.
NOTE: The /var/opt/sfm/log/sfm.log file is the file specified in the
Target field of the FMLoggerConfig.xml file.
Following is an example of how the sfm.log file is displayed when you change
the logging level to INFORMATIONAL, indicating that the provider is loaded
properly:
04/19/04 03:36:32 EMSWrapper INFORMATIONAL 9596 Using port 49173
04/19/04 03:36:32 EMSWrapper INFORMATIONAL 9596 provider Enabled
04/19/04 03:38:03 EMSWrapper INFORMATIONAL 9599 Registration
for
/storage/events/disks/default/0_0_0_2_0.6.0 Accepted. RequestID
: 63700993
04/19/04 03:38:03 EMSWrapper INFORMATIONAL 9599 Registration
for
/system/events/chassis/chassis_log Accepted. RequestID : 64552961
04/19/04 03:38:03 EMSWrapper INFORMATIONAL 9599 Registration
for
/system/events/core_hw/core_hw Accepted.
RequestID : 65404929
Use the information available in the file to analyze the problem.
6. When you complete testing, revert to the default severity settings in the
FMLoggerConfig.xmlfile using a text editor. If you do not revert to the default
settings, the logs consume more disk space.
To check if SFMProviderModule is running, enter the following command at the
HP-UX prompt:
Cause 6
SFMProviderModule is not running.
# cimprovider -ls
Following is a sample output of the command:
MODULE STATUS
OperatingSystemModule OK
ComputerSystemModule OK
ProcessModule OK
IPProviderModule OK
SFMProviderModule Degraded
