Viewing chassis information and monitoring chassis
and component health
You can view information and monitor the health of the following:
• CMC
• All severs and individual servers
• IO Modules
• Fans
• Power Supply Units (PSUs)
• Temperature sensors
• PCIe devices
• Storage sleds
Viewing chassis and component summaries
When you log in to the CMC web interface, the Chassis Health page displays the health of the chassis and its components. It
displays a graphical view of the chassis and its components. It is dynamically updated, and the component subgraphic overlays and
text hints are automatically changed to reflect the current state.
To view the chassis health, click Chassis Overview. The system displays the overall health status of the chassis, CMC, server
modules, IO Modules (IOM), fans, power supply units (PSUs), storage sleds, and PCIe devices. Detailed information about each
component is displayed when you click that component. In addition, the latest events in the CMC Hardware Log are also displayed.
For more information, see the Dell Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) User’s Guide.
If your chassis is configured as a Group Lead, the Group Health page is displayed after login. It displays the chassis level information
and alerts. All active, critical, and non-critical alerts are displayed.
Chassis graphics
The chassis is represented by the front, back, and the top views (the upper and lower images respectively). Servers, and KVMs are
shown in the front view and the remaining components are shown in the back view. Component selection is indicated by a blue cast
and is controlled by clicking the image of the required component. When a component is present in the chassis, an icon of the
component type is displayed in the graphics in the position (slot), where the component has been installed. Empty positions are
shown with a charcoal gray background. The component icon visually indicates the state of the component. Other components
display icons that visually represent the physical component. Pausing the cursor over a component displays a tool tip with additional
information about that component.
Selected component information
Information for the selected component is displayed in three independent sections:
• Health and Performance, and Properties — Displays the active, critical, and non-critical events as displayed by the hardware
logs and the performance data that vary with time.
• Properties — Displays the component properties that do not vary with time, or that change only infrequently.
• Quick Links — Provides links to navigate to the most frequently accessed pages, and also the most frequently performed
actions. Only links applicable to the selected component are displayed in this section.
