Chapter 2: Troubleshooting Your Library
How Does the Library Report Issues?
46 Quantum Scalar i6000 User’s Guide
The library has three ways of notifying users that it has discovered
issues and has created tickets for them:
• Status indicators on Library Management Console (LMC) system
status buttons
• E-mail notifications
• SNMP TRAP notifications
System Status Button
Indicators
System status buttons are located in the Overall System Status area at
the bottom of the LMC display. Each button displays a status indicator
for the library subsystem it represents. For more information about the
buttons, see
System Status Buttons on page 457. When the library
creates a ticket, the status indicator button for the affected subsystem
automatically changes from the following icon:
to one of the following icons:
3 (Warning) Indicates that a condition exists within a library subsystem that has some or little
effect on system operations. Typical library operations can continue without
immediate corrective action, but you should investigate the condition and correct
the problem when possible.
Examples of warning situations include a FRU that is functioning less reliably, or
drives that cannot unload a tape while other drives are still available to service
other requests, or a temperature threshold that has been reached that does not
affect reliable operations.
