Terminating program.
Note that the software has entries up through and including firmware release 9.0, which totals to more than 250
events. If you do not understand what any of these events mean, or what you should do about them, please contact
your disk subsystem provider for assistance.
Note also, that SMARTMon-UX does not launch alert emails or take any action on these events. The current release
of the software only dumps them for you. If you would like to have the system generate automated alerts based on
the event log, you will need to incorporate the alerts into a shell script or external program of your design.
The -ZA option produces the same report as the -ZL option, only you specify the starting event number to begin
reporting.
The -ZM option instructs the software to print a WWN-Mapping table that shows what WWNs are allocated to each
logical unit.
1.52.2 LSI (Engenio) RAID Engines
LSI (previously Engenio Information Technologies, Inc.) sells RAID subsystems both under the LSI brand, as well as
into the channel where other manufacturers (or VARs) re brand it as their own. As such, you might have a RAID
subsystem that uses a supported LSI engine and might not know it.
The dump below is from an IBM 1742 RAID subsystem, which has a supported LSI engine. As is the case with the
Infortrend RAID engine, entering the -I+ will report extended SCSI inquiry information along with vendor-unique
information which describes the device in more detail. If you just send the -I command for basic inquiry information,
the software will not attempt to discern whether or not device you selected has an LSI RAIDengine, and Infortrend
RAID engine, or some other RAID device.
The -z option sends the vendor-unique commands to query the subsystem and report information on the physical
disks in the subsystem. The example below shows the data returned by the -z portion in RED. The -I+ results are in
blue. The data in black will be returned regardless of the engine type (assuming the device is fibre channel, SCSI, or
USB host-attach interface). You can choose to enter the -I+ without the -z or the -z without the I+.
