Host fault management

Fault management enables you to monitor your SAN using the following methods:

• Monitor logs for specified conditions and notify you or run a script when the specified condition

is met.

• Create event-based policies, which contain an event trigger and action.

• Configure E-mail event notification.

• Receive and forward Syslog messages from Fabric OS switches and Brocade HBAs, managed

using the Host Connectivity Manager (HCM).

Adapter events

You can configure triggers and actions for the following event types that are:

• Product Audit Event — occurs when a target product is audited.

• Product Status Event — occurs when a device or connection changes to Up or Down.

• Product Threshold Alert Event — notifies you when a threshold alert has been reached.

You can configure event policies for events you want to monitor. A policy is the mechanism defined

by you that identifies the response to specific event types. You can customize the event

management policy using triggers and actions, which are explained in Chapter 10, “Fault

Management”.

Event policies
