EMS error notification

Shivkumar — Sun, 11 Sep 2005 00:47:06 GMT

We received the below mentioned error through the EMS notification:-

Message Text = E-Alert UXOS8004 ux EMS Event 9 23:10:38 "Servername here" [5462]: ------ EMS Event Notification ------ Value: SERIOUS (4) for Resource: /system/events/core_hw/core_hw (Threshold: >= 3 )

Can someone throw some light on this ?

Thanks,

Hi shiv

This error is a message given by the EMS running on the hp-ux box.

IF u check the /var/adm/syslog/syslog u can find a description of this error. There u can find "Execute the following command to obtain event details:" . Execute that command . It will be something like /opt/resmon/bin......

Once u execute that comand u can get quite a good description about the problem . More information about EMS can be found at

Hi Shiv

It is worthwhile checking syslog.log file as well to get clear picture of error reported through EMS.

Hi Shiv,

Just run the command given in the syslog.log you can come to know about the error details.

You can also check /opt/resmon/log/event.log (check the latest one).

Cheers,
Raj.

Try use this command:
#set_fixed -l
/system/status/core_hw/core_hw DOWN TRUE

#set_fixed -n /system/status/core_hw/core_hw

Shiv ,

dm_core_hw is the monitor for hardware which is part of the System Processing Unit (SPU.) This includes the cabinet power supplies and fans, system bus, circuits which connect the I/O system to the main processor, and intake temperature.

The EMS notification is for the core_hw ,
Once you run the command , that notified in syslog.log , you can come to know about the problem that alerted by EMS.

can be check :
# man dm_core_hw for further details, with core_hw.

Cheers,
Raj.
