EMS monitoring

I read that dm_chassis monitor is working only at 75xx, 84xx and Superdome. Will it work if I had 7400 Server and 3 vPar partitios. If it works do I need additional config.

Re: EMS monitoring

My documentation on an N-class (7400) say's that dm_chassis is only available on the S-class (rp8400) and Superdome.

Re: EMS monitoring

I'm not sure if that's a typo there (75xx instead of 74xx).

Here's the data sheet which may be where you found that statement: http://www.docs.hp.com/hpux/onlinedocs/diag/ems/emd_dm_chassis.htm , where the following is found:
Supported Products

The dm_chassis monitor runs on all PA Superdome class, rp74XX and rp84XX systems with processors prior to the PA8800.

Yes, dm_chassis will run on all partitions, and each will monitor the chassis logs. Only the first instance of dm_chassis to read a log entry will report a particular logged event, regardless of which partition it is associated with. This is deliberate (e.g. if a partition crashes, dm_chassis on that partition can't report it, but dm_chassis on a running partition can), but you have to read the event carefully to see which partition it applies to (not necessarily the one on which it was reported).

No extra configuration is needed.
