Node Example 3
Component -Identifier- --------------Description----------------
Node node:3 Node:3, Power Supply:1, Battery:0 has not been tested within
the last 30 days
Node Suggested Action 3
The indicated battery has not been tested in the past 30 days. A node backup battery will be tested
every 14 days under normal conditions, but if a battery is missing, expired, or failed, it will not
be tested. In addition, the other battery connected to the same node will not be tested because
testing it would cause loss of battery backup to the node, and the system will not allow that. An
untested battery will have an Unknown status in the showbattery -s output. Use commands
such as showbattery, showbattery -s, showbattery -d, and showbattery -log.
showbattery -s
Node PS Bat -State-- -Detailed_State-
0 0 0 OK normal
0 1 0 Degraded Unknown
Examine the date of the last successful test of that battery. Assuming the comment date was
2009-10-14, the last battery test on Node 0, PS 1, Bat 0 was 2009-09-10, which is more
than 30 days in the past.

PD
Displays Physical Disks (PDs) with states or conditions that are not optimal.
• Checks for failed and degraded PDs
• Checks for an imbalance of PD ports, for example, if Port-A is used on more disks than Port-B
• Checks for an "Unknown" Sparing Algorithm. For example, when it hasn't been set
• Checks for disks experiencing a high number of IOPS
• Reports if a servicemag operation is outstanding (servicemag status)
Format of Possible PD Exception Messages
PD disk:<pdid> "Detailed State: <showpd -s -degraded -failed">
PD -- "There is an imbalance of active PD ports"
PD -- "Sparing algorithm is not set"
