Monitoring I/O Adapters and Modules
G4SAs are configured and managed through the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF)
interface to the ServerNet LAN Systems Access (SLSA) subsystem. The SLSA
subsystem is preinstalled and preconfigured and is started during the system-load
sequence.
For information about the SLSA subsystem, refer to the LAN Configuration and
Management Manual.
Monitoring I/O Adapters and Modules
Use the Subsystem Control Facility (SCF) or the OSM Service Connection to monitor
the FCSAs, G4SAs, and ServerNet/DAs.
Monitoring the FCSAs
To monitor the FCSAs using OSM, refer to Using OSM to Monitor the System on
page 3-7.
To monitor the FCSA and its attached devices with SCF, use the SCF INFO and SCF
STATUS commands.
For example, to monitor all FCSAs using SCF:
> SCF STATUS ADAPTER $ZZSTO.#FCSA*, DETAIL
The SCF Reference Manual for the Storage Subsystem provides reference details and
examples for using the SCF INFO and SCF STATUS commands.
When monitoring FCSAs using the OSM Service Connection, the states of the FCSAs
should indicate normal operation. Table 8-1 lists the possible states for the FCSA.
Table 8-1. Service, Flash Firmware, Flash Boot Firmware, Device, and
Enabled States for the FCSA (page 1 of 2)
State Description
Service State: OK The resource is functioning normally and does not require attention or
service.
Service State:
Attention
Required
The resource requires operator attention. This condition sometimes
generates an alarm, and the component that requires attention is
