xii IBM Systems Director Events Reference
Chapter 1. Hardware platform events
IBM Systems Director introduces a new set of event types that categorize all
possible events by the hardware or devices in your systems-management
environment.
v For a hardware events severity-level name and number cross reference, see
Table 1.
v For events that can be generated by multiple hardware platforms, including IBM
BladeCenter and System x systems, see Table 2.
v For events that are specific to IBM Power

systems, see IBM Power


platform-specific events.
v For events that are specific to IBM System Storage

, see IBM System Storage


platform-specific events.
Use the following table to map event severity-level names to numbers.
Table 1. Severity level name-number cross reference
Severity level name Severity number
Unknown 0, 1
Informational, Harmless 2
Warning 3
Minor 4
Critical 5, 6
Fatal 7
Using your Web browser Find in page feature, use the following table to look up
events by their IBM Director 5.20 name. The link provided displays the version
5.20 event documentation that still applies to the new version 6.1 event.

IBM BladeCenter and System x platform-specific events
The events listed in this section are specific for the IBM BladeCenter and System x
hardware platforms. In IBM Director 5.20, these were called the CIM and MPA
events. In IBM Systems Director 6.1, the CIM and MPA events are still used, but
are mapped to hardware component categories. Use the Hardware-platform event
cross-reference table to find the 5.20 event name and its equivalent 6.1 event name.
CIM events
The CIM events occur when a change in state is detected for IBM Systems Director
components and features as well as hardware in an IBM Systems Director
environment. For detailed event types, expand the CIM node in the Event Filter
Builder tree.
Details
If you select the CIM check box in the Event Filter Builder tree, the event filter will
process all of the event types that are specified in the CIM subtree.

CIM > System > RAID > RAID Controller Bad Stripes:
The RAID Controller Bad Stripes event occurs when one or more logical drives
contain at least one bad stripe. This event can be generated by ServeRAID options.
Resolution
The Bad Stripe Table (BST) provides a means of recovering most data on a logical
drive after multiple hardware errors prevent access to a logical drive stripe. An
entry in the BST indicates that the data contained in a stripe has been lost.
While many conditions can produce a Bad Stripe Table entry, the most common
cause is an error accessing one of the stripe units within a stripe of a critical logical
drive. A single stripe unit failure is correctable and recoverable but two or more
failures within the same redundant RAID stripe are not.
For example, in a critical RAID-5 array, in which one of the drives in the array is
defunct, a stripe will be marked bad with an entry in the BST if a non-recoverable
media error occurs when accessing one of the other drives of the array.
After an entry is logged in the BST, the controller will return an error code to the
driver whenever the host system tries to access a Logical Block Address (LBA)
within the affected stripe. This is one immediate indication that some part of the
logical drive is unusable.
Note: It is not possible to correlate the bad stripe with a specific file in the
operating system.
To resolve this error, complete the following steps:
v Check the event logs to identify the affected logical drives.
v Because the data has been lost, the only way to recover from this condition is to
complete the following steps:
1. Delete the array.
2. Recreate the array and its logical drives.
3. Restore the data from backup media.
Note: The alternative is to take the entire logical drive offline, thus resulting in
the loss of all data contained on that logical drive.
To minimize the risk of lost data, schedule frequent periodic backups.

The Unknown events occur when a service processor detects an unknown
problem. Typically, the service processor event log provides more information.
Resolution
Check the service processor event log for more information. For information about
checking the service processor event log, see the service processor documentation.
For IBM Systems Director, contact IBM Technical Support and notify them that the
value in the Firmware code extended detail included on this event is not mapping
to an appropriate MPA event.

IBM Power platform-specific events
The events listed in this section are specific for the IBM Power hardware platform.
There are two types of hardware events: Firmware and device events. Firmware
events originate from the Computer System, Fan, Memory and Processor. Device
events originate from Ethernet port, Fibre Channel port, Optical disk, PCI device,
physical volume, and USB port.
All firmware events that are shown on the IBM Systems Director console are
cleared when Systems Director receives a resolution event from the agent or from
the Hardware Management Console (HMC) or Integrated Virtualization Manager
(IVM). The resolution event corresponds to a REPLACED_FRU entry in the AIX
error log or Linux on Power servicelog or on the HMC or IVM.
Device events do not have a corresponding resolution event. These events need to
be cleared manually on Systems Director server. For instructions, see this topic:
Deleting a Power Systems status set entry.
The list of possible events follows:
Computer System
These events are generated when a change in the operating condition of a
computer system or its components is detected.
Note: IBM Power events can be generated by systems running AIX, Linux on IBM
Power, HMC, and IVM.
To view these events in the Event Filter Builder tree, expand Managed Resource >
Managed System Resource > Logical Resource > System > Computer System
Conditions
Notes:
1. Events with the condition type Operational Condition are generated by IBM
Director Agent version 5.20 for AIX.
2. For IBM Director Agent version 5.20 for Linux on Power Systems, none of these
events are generated for in-band communication.

PET events
Platform Event Trap (PET) events are generated by systems with Alert Standard
Format (ASF) or an IPMI baseboard management controller. The PET events
provide advance warning of possible system failures.
Details
Note: For detailed information about Platform Event Traps, see the following
documentation:
v Intel Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification Version 1.5, dated June
1, 2004.
v Intel IPMI Platform Event Trap Specification Version 1.0, dated December 7, 1998.
For IBM Director 5.20 or later, ASF configuration is no longer supported. However,
any managed systems that you have previously configured in your IBM Systems
Director environment will still generate PET events and IBM Systems Director will
receive those events.
If a system has an IPMI baseboard management controller, both a PET event and
an equivalent MPA event are sent to IBM Systems Director Server. Because the
MPA event provides more information and is easier to read, it is recommended
that you create event-action plans with event filters for the MPA event types.
Chapter 1. Hardware platform events 153
If you select the PET check box in the Event Filter Builder tree, the event filter will
process all of the event types that are specified in the PET subtree.

PET > Environmental
The Environmental event occurs when a change in the state of the system
environment is detected. In the IBM Systems Director environment, the
Environmental event types are associated with the state of the sensors that detect
changes in a system environment. For detailed event types, expand the
Environmental node in the Event Filter Builder tree.
Details
If you select the Environmental check box in the Event Filter Builder tree, the
event filter will process all of the event types that are specified in the

SNMP events
The SNMP events represent SNMP traps that are generated by the SNMP agents,
software programs, and IBM hardware. A subset of the SNMP events are generated
by Platform Agent and Common Agent.
Event source
SNMP traps are generated by the SNMP agents that are installed on the SNMP
devices being managed by IBM Systems Director Server. IBM Systems Director
receives the SNMP traps and converts them into the SNMP event types that are
displayed in the Event Filter Builder tree. See each event type for details about its
source.
Details
When you compile MIB files, they contain the trap definition of the traps that are
displayed in the Event Filter Builder.
Note: You must load the MIB files into memory in order to view the SNMP event
types in the Event Filter Builder tree. For more information, see Selecting MIB
files to load into memory.
The event types available in the Event Filter Builder tree can vary depending on
which MIB files you have loaded into memory and what products provided the
MIB file. The IBM Systems Director information center provides information about
the ibmSystemMIB and ibmServeRAIDMIB event types. For other SNMP event
types under the iso node, see the MIB file that contains these SNMP traps.
Chapter 1. Hardware platform events 161
The trap definitions can conform to either SNMP v1 or SNMP v2. The exact
subnode under which the traps are displayed depends on which branch of the
standard MIB the traps MIB is under: experimental, mgmt, private, or snmpV2.
Trap definitions from most MIBs, are displayed under the private subnode
(SNMP.iso.org.internet.private). Traps defined in the standard MIBs, such as MIB II,
are displayed under the mgmt subnode (SNMP.iso.org.internet.mgmt).
If you select the SNMP check box in the Event Filter Builder tree, the event filter
will process all of the events that are specified in the SNMP subtree. You can
choose to select specific event types that are displayed under the SNMP node in
the Event Filter Builder tree. The event filter will process only the events that you
select.
Platform considerations
On Linux on System x, Linux on Power Systems, and AIX onIBM Power, the
SNMP service is included with the Platform Agent. IBM Director Agent uses the
'dirsnmpd' SNMP service to accomplish these tasks:
v Forward events over SNMP to other management platforms, such as HP
OpenView Network Node Manager, Tivoli, or SNMP managers.
v Send events to the IBM Director Server by using SNMP traps.
When Common Agent is installed on a system, the SNMP service might be
optional because the agent forwards all events to the IBM Director Server. SNMP is
required to manageIBM servers that have Common Agent installed on them if
either of the following is true:
v Upward integration is configured on any environment that needs IBM Director
Agent to use SNMP to report events.
v Platform Agent must use SNMP traps to report events to IBM Director Server.
The 'dirsnmpd' SNMP service uses these configuration files:
v Linux on System x: /etc/snmpd.conf
v Linux on Power Systems, and AIX onIBM Power: /etc/snmpdv3.conf
ibmSystemMIB
The ibmSystemMIB events provide information about system subcomponent
failures and warranty and lease status. For detailed events, expand the
ibmSystemMIB node in the Event Filter Builder tree.
Details
The full path for this event type in the Event Filter Builder tree is:
SNMP > iso > org > dod > internet > private > enterprises > ibm > ibmProd >
director > ibmSystem > ibmSystemMIB
If you select the ibmSystemMIB check box in the Event Filter Builder tree, the
event filter will process all of the events that are specified in the ibmSystemMIB
subtree. You can choose to select specific event types that are displayed under the
ibmSystemMIB node in the Event Filter Builder tree. The event filter will process
only the events that you select.

ibmSystemRaidControllerBadStripes
The ibmSystemRaidControllerBadStripes event occurs when one or more logical
drives contain at least one bad stripe.
Resolution
The Bad Stripe Table (BST) provides a means of recovering most data on a logical
drive after multiple hardware errors prevent access to a logical drive stripe. An
entry in the BST indicates that the data contained in a stripe has been lost.
182 IBM Systems Director Events Reference
While many conditions can produce a Bad Stripe Table entry, the most common
cause is an error accessing one of the stripe units within a stripe of a critical logical
drive. A single stripe unit failure is correctable and recoverable but two or more
failures within the same redundant RAID stripe are not.
For example, in a critical RAID-5 array, in which one of the drives in the array is
defunct, a stripe will be marked bad with an entry in the BST if a non-recoverable
media error occurs when accessing one of the other drives of the array.
After an entry is logged in the BST, the controller will return an error code to the
driver whenever the host system tries to access a Logical Block Address (LBA)
within the affected stripe. This is one immediate indication that some part of the
logical drive is unusable.
Note: It is not possible to correlate the bad stripe with a specific file in the
operating system.
To resolve this error, complete the following steps:
v Check the ServeRAID Manager event logs to identify the affected logical
drive(s).
v Because the data has been lost, the only way to recover from this condition is to
complete the following steps:
1. Delete the array.
2. Recreate the array and its logical drives.
3. Restore the data from backup media.
Note: The alternative is to take the entire logical drive offline, thus resulting in
the loss of all data contained on that logical drive.
To minimize the risk of lost data, be sure to schedule frequent periodic backups.

Director > Correlation > Common Agent events
The Correlation events occur as a result of a specialized task called Agent to
Blade-Correlation and Event Generation. This task is available only in the Event
Action Plan Builder. When you create an event action plan and use the Start a
task on the system that generated the event event action, one of the tasks that you
can select for this event action is Agent to Blade-Correlation and Event
Generation. This task determines the UUID of a BladeCenter chassis or blade
server in your BladeCenter installation and provides the UUID to you by way of
the Correlation event.
Chapter 2. IBM Systems Director tasks, software, and operating system events 231
Details
This is a customized event. The customization settings are in the
ChassisID.properties file that is located in the install_root classes\com\ibm\sysmgt\
chassis directory, where install_root is the root directory of your IBM Systems
Director installation. Note that this path uses the backslash (\) to delimit the
directory; depending on the system that you are using, you might be required to
enter the path using the forward slash (/).

CIM > Windows NT Event Log
The Windows NT Event Log events are generated by IBM Systems Director Server
when it receives events from the Windows operating system. If an IBM Systems
Director environment does not include any systems running Windows, these
events are not available.
These CIM event types map to the Windows Event Log events in the IBM Systems
Director Event Filter Builder tree. For more information about the Windows event
log, see the Windows event log documentation.
CIM > Windows NT Service
The Windows NT Service events are generated by IBM Systems Director Server
when it receives events from the Windows operating system. If an IBM Systems
Director environment does not include any systems running Windows, these
events are not available.
These CIM event types map to the Windows Event Log events in the IBM Systems
Director Event Filter Builder tree. For more information about the Windows event
log, see the Windows event log documentation.
CIM > Windows Registry
The Windows Registry events are generated by IBM Systems Director Server when
it receives events from the Windows operating system. If an IBM Systems Director
environment does not include any systems running Windows, these events are not
available.
These CIM event types map to the Windows Event Log events in the IBM Systems
Director Event Filter Builder tree. For more information about the Windows event
log, see the Windows event log documentation.
Chapter 2. IBM Systems Director tasks, software, and operating system events 233
Windows Event Log events
The Windows event log events are generated by the Windows operating system. If
IBM Systems Director Server does not discover any Common Agent managed
systems (including the management server that IBM Systems Director Server is
installed on) running Microsoft Windows, these event types are not present in the
Event Filter Builder tree.
In the Event Filter Builder tree, the Windows Event Log node expands to display
three nodes:
v Application
v Security
v System
Note: Additional nodes might be displayed when you expand the Windows Event
Log node. Whether these nodes are present depends on the managed systems
discovered by IBM Systems Director Server and their Windows registry settings.
These nodes map to the three folders displayed under the Event Log folder in the
Windows Registry Editor.
Note: To view these folders in the Windows Registry Editor, complete the
following steps:
1. Type regedit on a command line to start the Windows Registry Editor.
2. Click My Computer > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > System >
CurrentControlSet > Services > Eventlog.
Microsoft has requirements for how an application provides its events to the
Windows event log. If an application fails to meet these requirements, IBM
Systems Director cannot map the application Windows events to the IBM Systems
Director Event Filter Builder tree. Application Windows events that can be mapped
are displayed under the System node of the Event Filter Builder tree. Some of the
requirements that must be met include providing a DLL that contains the event
description. Windows event properties include an event ID. The event ID maps to
the event description that is contained in the DLL.
Note: To view Windows event properties, including the event ID, complete the
following steps:
1. From the Windows desktop, click Start > Control Panel > Administrative
Tools.
2. In the Administrative Tools window, double-click Event Viewer
3. To open the Event Properties window, double-click an event. The event ID is
displayed as well as the source of the event.
Details
If you select the Windows Event Log check box in the Event Filter Builder tree, the
event filter will process all of the event types that are specified in the Windows
Event Log subtree. Expand this subtree to select specific event types or categories
of event types.
234 IBM Systems Director Events Reference
Chapter 3. Sources of events in an IBM Systems Director
environment
IBM Systems Director can use a number of sets of events. These events are
generated in different ways. Understanding how an event is generated can help
you decide which events can provide the information you need. Using this
information, you can build an event action plan to automate your
system-management work.
CIM event sources
CIM event types are generated by IBM Systems Director components and features,
hardware, and hardware options.
CIM > System
CIM indications are generated by managed systems that have either Platform
Agent or Common Agent installed. IBM Systems Director Server converts the CIM
indications into the CIM event types.
For HMC, the CIMOM generates CIM indications that IBM Systems Director
Server converts into CIM event types.
For IBM Power managed system running AIX, the CIMOM running on the IBM
Power managed system generates CIM indications that IBM Systems Director
Server converts into CIM event types.
Note: (Platform Agent managed systems with ServeRAID controllers only) In
order for the management server to receive CIM events from the system, you must
install the ServeRAID Manager program (Standalone Edition).
The MPA event source in IBM Director, version 5.10 and later
MPA events are not generated by Platform Agent or Common Agent as they were
in previous versions of IBM Systems Director. MPA events are generated only by
IBM Systems Director Server when it receives out-of-band notifications from IBM
service processors and BladeCenter management modules.
Note: This information does not apply to IBM Director for NetWare, version 5.10
or 5.20.
You must configure the service processors and management modules in your
system-management environment to send notifications to IBM Systems Director
Server. IBM Systems Director attempts to perform this configuration automatically
when a system or chassis is discovered. If the configuration cannot be performed
(often because the service processor or management module is already configured
to send events to the maximum number of destinations), IBM Systems Director
generates an event to indicate this fact.
Copyright IBM Corp. 1999, 2011 235
PET event source
PET events are not generated by Platform Agent or Common Agent. PET events
are out-of-band events received by IBM Systems Director Server from systems with
Alert Standard Format (ASF) or an IPMI baseboard management controller (BMC).
You must configure such systems in your system-management environment in
order for IBM Systems Director Server to receive PET events. For systems with an
IPMI BMC, see Preparing to install IBM Systems Director on a System x server
for information about configuring the controller to send notifications to IBM
Systems Director Server.
Notes:
1. IBM Director 5.20 or later does not support ASF configuration. However, IBM
Systems Director can receive PET events from ASF managed systems that were
configured to send events in an earlier version of IBM Systems Director.
2. Not all ASF systems generate all of the PET events.
ibmSystemMIB event source
ibmSystemMIB event types are generated by Common Agent. IBM Systems
Director uses CIM indications to communicate hardware information. If you have
configured your IBM Systems Director environment to use SNMP traps, IBM
Systems Director converts the CIM indications into the ibmSystemMIB SNMP
traps. For information about configuring your IBM Systems Director environment
to use SNMP traps, see Configuring SNMP trap forwarding.
To support SNMP, the Common Agent includes a CIM client that is called the
Common Agent SNMP agent. It translates the CIM-indication data into SNMP
format and exports the SNMP data to SNMP clients, such as HP OpenView and
Tivoli NetView

Upward Integration Modules (UIMs). When you configure your


IBM Systems Director environment to use SNMP traps, the Common Agent SNMP
agent is registered with the operating system and any queries involving the
Common Agent enterprise OID are forwarded to the Common Agent SNMP agent
for processing.
When an SNMP client sends a Get request, the Common Agent SNMP agent
receives the request and queries the CIM server on the target managed system.
Then, the CIM server performs the following steps:
1. Translates the SNMP request to a CIM client request
2. Converts the SNMP variable that is the subject of the request to a CIM instance
and property
3. Translates the CIM response to an SNMP response
4. Returns the response to the SNMP client
While the Common Agent SNMP agent is installed and registered, it creates and
forwards SNMP traps to any configured alert destinations. and you cannot stop the
forwarding of the SNMP traps. Unwanted SNMP traps must be filtered out by the
listening event server.
236 IBM Systems Director Events Reference
Chapter 4. Extended details and variable-binding information
Some implementations of IBM Systems Director event types use extended details to
provide additional information about the occurrence that generated an event.
Note: PET and SNMP trap event types use variable bindings.
In this documentation, each event lists any extended details that they have. Some
sets of events use the same extended details and they are defined in the following
sections. If an event has additional extended details, they are documented with the
affected event.
Extended details for CIM events
The CIM event types use the following standard set of extended details.
v AlertingManagedElement is the system component that is affected by the alert.
v Category is one of the following hardware event categories defined by the
Hardware Status task:
Communications
Device
Environmental
Security
v EventID provides the component node labels in the interface for the Hardware
Status task.
v EventTime is a reserved extended detail.
v ProviderName is a reserved extended detail.
Extended details for HMC CIM events
The CIM event types for HMC use the following standard set of extended details.
v AlertingManagedElement is the CIM object path of the system that generated the
event
v EventID provides the component node labels in the interface for the Hardware
Status task.
v EventTime provides the date and time that the event was generated. This value is
based on the local date and time of the system that generated the event.
v SenderUUID is the UUID of the HMC that sent the event.
Extended details for the Director > Director Agent events
The Director > Director Agent events use a standard set of extended attributes.
v Duration is the configured value that you assigned in the Minimum Duration
field of the Threshold Configuration window.
v Monitor Resource is the type of monitor configured with a threshold.
v Threshold Name is the name that you assigned to the threshold.
Copyright IBM Corp. 1999, 2011 237
Extended details for the IBM Systems Director Program > Security
events
The IBM Systems Director Program > Security events use a standard set of
extended details.
v Address is the TCP/IP address or host name for the browser system that failed to
log on.
v User ID is the user ID of the user who failed to log on.
Extended details for MPA events
The MPA events use extended details to provide information about a state change
detected by a service processor or management module.
Most MPA events use some or all of the following extended details; however, the
availability of certain extended details will vary depending on the system from
which an event is generated. For example, events generated by an IPMI baseboard
management controller (BMC) does not provide the Sensor Label and Sensor
Number extended details.
v Firmware code is a 32-bit code that the service processor sends IBM Systems
Director Server to indicate what has occurred. This attribute is useful when
troubleshooting a problem with the assistance of IBM service representatives.
v Sender UUID is the universally unique identifier (UUID) of the physical system
that sent the event, or the UUID of the BladeCenter chassis if its management
module sent the event. Typically, the Sender UUID and Source UUID are the
same system. However, the sending physical system can be different from the
source system of the event. For example, a BladeCenter chassis (sender) sends
events for the blade servers (source) that it contains. Similarly, a server (sender)
sends events for an attached RXE-100 expansion unit (source).
v Sensor Label identifies the purpose of the affected sensor. This extended detail is
provided only when the event is generated by an IPMI baseboard management
controller.
v Sensor Number identifies the affected sensor. This extended detail is provided
only when the event is generated by an IPMI baseboard management controller.
v Source UUID is the universally unique identifier of the source physical system.
The source system is the source of the event, but not necessarily the sender of
the event. See Sender UUID for more information.
Extended details for PET events
All PET events use the same standard set of extended details (variable bindings).
Note: For detailed information about these extended details (variable bindings),
see the following documentation:
v Intel Intelligent Platform Management Interface Specification Version 1.5, dated June
1, 2004.
v Intel IPMI Platform Event Trap Specification Version 1.0, dated December 7, 1998.
v Entity identifies the affected system component, such as a, microprocessor,
system board, or power supply.
v Entity Instance identifies the affected instance of the system component, such as
power supply 1 and power supply 2.
v Event Data provides additional event information as specified by a combination
of the Event Type and Event Source extended details.
238 IBM Systems Director Events Reference
v Event Severity identifies the severity of the event. See the IPMI Specification for
defined values.
v Event Source Type identifies the class of device or type of software that originated
the event. This can be different than the device or type of software that sends
the trap. See the IPMI Specification for defined values.
v Event Type identifies what type of transition or state triggered the event.
v GUID identifies the GUID for the system.
v Language Code identifies, in combination with the OEM Custom Field extended
detail, the language that any strings are in.
Note: Language is different than character set. Character sets are specified as
ASCII or Unicode.
v Local Timestamp identifies the local time of the system, as a number of seconds.
v Manufacturer ID identifies the manufacturer ID using private enterprise IDs.
v OEM Custom Field provides customized information and can be used in
combination with the Language Code extended detail.
v Offset indicates which particular event occurred for a given Event Type.
v Sensor Device identifies the instance of the device that contains the sensor that
generated the event.
v Sensor Number uniquely identifies this sensor among all the sensors monitored
by this sensor device.
v Sensor Type identifies the types of events the event sensor is monitoring, such as
temperature, voltage, current, BIOS, POST, processor, and fan. Sometimes
referred to as the Event Sensor Type in the IPMI and PET Specifications.
v Sequence ID identifies whether the event trap is new or retransmitted. The
function of this field is specific to the trap source type.
v System ID identifies the particular system, product model, in combination with
the Manufacturer ID extended detail.
v Trap Source Type identifies the class of the device or software that originated the
trap on the network. See the IPMI Specification for defined values.
v UTC Offset identifies the coordinated universal time (UTC) offset in minutes.
Variable-binding information for IBM Systems Director SNMP events
The IBM Systems Director SNMP events use the following variables in the
variable-binding pairs.
For the values that are bound to these variables for each event type, see the
IBM-SYSTEM-TRAP-MIB.mib file in the install_root/proddata/snmp directory, where
install_root is the root directory of your IBM Systems Director Server installation.

Chapter 5. CIM indications in IBM Systems Director
CIM indications are the fundamental means that IBM Systems Director receives
hardware and system information. Depending on how your system-management
environment is implemented, IBM Systems Director converts the CIM indications
into events or other appropriate vehicles for communicating information to end
consumers.
IBM Systems Director converts CIM indications for use by the following end
consumers:
v IBM Systems Director events
v IBM Systems Director Web interface (including, but not limited to, the Problems
column in Resource Explorer, the Scoreboard available from the Health
Summary, and the Problems task available from the navigation pane)

default, the warning level is 5% remaining and critical level is 3% remaining.
Notes:
v IBMPSG_StorageEvent CIM indication is not available in Platform Agent version
6.x. When using Platform Agent version 6.x, this CIM indication is not generated
even when the system hard disk drive space meets the low disk condition.
Instead, use a custom monitor view to monitor a low disk condition. For more
information, see Scenario: Using a custom monitor view in an event automation
plan to report disk data by using drive letter names.
v The CA Unicenter, HP OpenView, and Tivoli NetView Upward Integration
Modules (UIMs) use SNMP traps.
v This event type is independent of all RAID and other storage-related events.

Adjusting disk-space event threshold values on Linux
systems
If necessary, you can adjust the default threshold values for disk-space events on
systems running Linux. This enables you to control at what point warning and
critical messages are displayed.
To adjust the threshold values for disk-space events, complete the following steps:
Note: This function is unavailable when using Platform Agent version 6.x. Instead,
use a custom monitor view to monitor a low disk condition. For more information,
see Scenario: Using a custom monitor view in an event automation plan to report
disk data by using drive letter names.
1. Run the following command to stop the CIM server service:
/etc/init.d/cimserverd stop.
2. Use a text editor to edit the /opt/ibm/director/cimom/data/disk.dat file.
Adjust the following threshold values as needed:
/.IBMPSG_LogicalDisk.Period=30
/.IBMPSG_LogicalDisk.WarningThreshold=5
/.IBMPSG_LogicalDisk.CriticalThreshold=3
where Period is the time (in minutes) between checks, WarningThreshold is the
percentage of disk space remaining for the warning message to display, and
CriticalThreshold is the percentage of disk space remaining for the critical
message to display.
3. Save your changes and close the file.
4. Run the following command to start the CIM server service:
/etc/init.d/cimserverd start.
Adjusting disk-space event threshold values on Windows
systems
If necessary, you can adjust the default threshold values for disk-space events on
systems running Windows. This enables you to control at what point warning and
critical messages are displayed.
To adjust the threshold values for disk-space events, complete the following steps:
Note: This function is unavailable when using Platform Agent version 6.x. Instead,
use a custom monitor view to monitor a low disk condition. For more information,
see Scenario: Using a custom monitor view in an event automation plan to report
disk data by using drive letter names.
Chapter 5. CIM indicators 253
1. Run the following command to stop the CIM server service: net stop winmgmt.
2. Use a text editor to edit the <Director install location>\cimom\data\
disk.dat file, where <Director install location> is the location of the IBM Systems
Director installation. Adjust the following threshold values as needed:
/.IBMPSG_LogicalDisk.Period=30
/.IBMPSG_LogicalDisk.WarningThreshold=5
/.IBMPSG_LogicalDisk.CriticalThreshold=3
where Period is the time (in minutes) between checks, WarningThreshold is the
percentage of disk space remaining for the warning message to display, and
CriticalThreshold is the percentage of disk space remaining for the critical
message to display.
3. Save your changes and close the file.
4. Run the following command to start the CIM server service: net start
winmgmt. You might need to restart your agent system for the changes to take
effect.
