Introduction

Dell OpenManage Server Administrator generates event messages stored primarily in the operating system or Server Administrator event logs and sometimes in Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps. This document describes the event messages that are created by Server Administrator version 7.0 and displayed in the Server Administrator alert log.
Server Administrator creates events in response to sensor status changes and other monitored parameters. The Server Administrator event monitor uses these status change events to add descriptive messages to the operating system event log or the Server Administrator alert log.
Each event message that Server Administrator adds to the alert log consists of a unique identifier called the event ID for a specific event source category and a descriptive message. The event message includes the severity, cause of the event, and other relevant information, such as the event location and the previous state of the monitored item.
The tables in this guide list all Server Administrator event IDs in numeric order. Each entry includes the description, severity level, and cause of the event ID. The message text in angle brackets (for example, <State>) describes the event-specific information provided by the Server Administrator.
Introduction 7

What’s New in this Release

The following new alerts are added:
2425 - State change on Physical disk from READY to Non-RAID.
2426 - State change on Physical disk from Non-RAID to READY.
2429 - Drive Prepared for Removal.
2430 - Drive Log Exported.

Messages Not Described in This Guide

This guide describes only event messages logged by Server Administrator and Storage Management that are displayed in the Server Administrator alert log. For information on other messages generated by your system, see one of the following sources:

Understanding Event Messages

This section describes the various types of event messages generated by the Server Administrator. When an event occurs on your system, Server Administrator sends information about one of the following event types to the systems management console:
Table 1-1. Understanding Event Messages
Icon Alert Severity Component Status
OK /Normal / Informational
8 Introduction
An event that describes the successful operation of a unit. The alert is provided for informational purposes and does not indicate an error condition. For example, the alert may indicate the normal start or stop of an operation, such as power supply or a
sensor reading returning to normal.
Table 1-1. Understanding Event Messages
Icon Alert Severity Component Status
War n ing / Non-critical
Critical / Failure / Error
An event that is not necessarily significant, but may indicate a possible future problem. alert may indicate that a component (such as a temperature probe in an enclosure) has crossed a warning threshold.
A significant event that indicates actual or imminent loss of data or loss of function. threshold or a hardware failure such as
For example, a Warning/Non-critical
For example,

an array disk.
Server Administrator generates events based on status changes in the following sensors:
Temperature Sensor
— Helps protect critical components by alerting the systems management console when temperatures become too high inside a chassis; also monitors the temperature in a variety of locations in the chassis and in attached system(s).
Fan Sensor
— Monitors fans in various locations in the chassis and in
attached system(s).
Volt age S enso r
— Monitors voltages across critical components in various
chassis locations and in attached system(s).
Current Sensor
— Monitors the current (or amperage) output from the
power supply (or supplies) in the chassis and in attached system(s).
Chassis Intrusion Sensor
— Monitors intrusion into the chassis and
attached system(s).
Redundancy Unit Sensor
— Monitors redundant units (critical units such as fans, AC power cords, or power supplies) within the chassis; also monitors the chassis and attached system(s). For example, redundancy allows a second or
n
th fan to keep the chassis components at a safe temperature when another fan has failed. Redundancy is normal when the intended number of critical components are operating. Redundancy is degraded when a component fails, but others are still operating. Redundancy is lost when there is one less critical redundancy device than required.
Power Supply Sensor
— Monitors power supplies in the chassis and in
attached system(s).

You can also view the event log using your operating system’s event viewer. Each operating system’s event viewer accesses the applicable operating system event log.
The location of the event log file depends on the operating system you are using.
On systems running the Microsoft Windows operating systems, event messages are logged in the operating system event log and the Server Administrator event log.
On systems running the Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, Citrix XenServer, VMware ESX, and VMware ESXi operating systems, the event messages are logged in the operating system log file and the Server Administrator event log.

NOTE: The Server Administrator event log file is named dcsys32.xml and is
located in the <install_path>\omsa\log directory. The default install_path is C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt.
NOTE: The default name of the operating system log file is /var/log/messages,
and you can view the operating system log file using a text editor such as vi or emacs. The Server Administrator event log file is named dcsys<xx>.xml, where xx is either 32 or 64 bit depending on the operating system. In the Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, Citrix XenServer and VMware ESX operating systems, the Server Administrator event log file is located in the /opt/dell/srvadmin/var/log/openmanage directory. In the VMware ESXi operating system, the Server Administrator event log file is located in the /etc/cim/dell/srvadmin/log/openmanage directory.
Introduction 11
Logging Messages to a Unicode Text File
Logging messages to a Unicode text file is optional. By default, the feature is disabled in the Server Administrator. To enable this feature, modify the
Event Manager section of the dcemdy<xx>.ini configuration file where xx is 32 or 64 bit depending on the operating system, as follows:
On systems running Microsoft Windows operating systems, you can locate the configuration file in the the property
C:\Program Files\Dell\SysMgt
service to enable the setting. The Server Administrator Unicode text event log file is named <

On systems running the Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, Citrix XenServer and VMware ESX operating systems, you can locate the configuration file in the
srvadmin-deng/ini
UnitextLog.enabled=true restart
service and enable the setting. This also restarts the Server Administrator Data Manager and SNMP services. The Server Administrator Unicode text event log file is named on the operating system and is located in the
