Resetting the Statistics Logs on a Controller

Testing and Silencing System and Enclosure Alarms
Adaptec Storage Manager supports an audible alarm which is triggered on the local system
when a Warning- or Error-level event (see page 105) occurs on any system in your storage
space. Adaptec Storage Manager also supports audible alarms on enclosures.
This section describes how to work with the audible alarms in your storage space:
● For system alarms, see the next section.
● For enclosure alarms, see page 97.
Working with System Alarms
Warning- or Error-level events (see page 105) on a system trigger an audible alarm, a series of
beeps which sound every five minutes until the event is resolved.
The alarm is enabled by default, but can be disabled on any system, if required. You can also
change the
frequency and duration of the alarm .
Note:
A system alarm is not the same as a controller alarm. For controller alarm information, see
Working with Controllers on page 92.
This section describes how to work with your systems’ audible alarms.
Testing a System’s Alarm

2 In the Enterprise View, click on your local system.
3 In the menu bar, click Actions, then select Agent actions.
4 Select Alarm actions, then click Test ala rm.
The alarm sounds.
5 To stop the test, click OK.
