Clicking the [No] button does not cause the tree to be reconstructed in the data viewer. If so, the
information in the data viewer may be different from the current system information because the
change of the system configuration is not reflected on the data viewer.

SCSI Slot Information

When the PCI module is detached and you select [SCSI Slot]

→ [General Information], the

displayed “Hardware LED” information may not be correct.

To check the status of SCSI slots, see the string information in the “Status” column.

Impact When Module Status Changes

PCI modules, SCSI adapters, SCSI buses, and modules under the SCSI enclosure have impact on
each other. For example, when the “Status” item of a module changes to “fault,” it may be caused
by another module’s error. Therefore, you need to check the status of the other modules based on
alert information.

Status Color after Mounting a Hard Disk

When creating a new mirror, the status of the hard disk and its upper component, SCSI enclosure,
will continue to change frequently after you mount a hard disk until the mirror is completed. During
this process, the status color may turn to abnormal, but when the mirror is created successfully, it
will return normal.

LAN Monitoring Report

The LAN monitoring function defines the line status depending on the number of transmission
packets and the number of packet errors within a certain period. Thus, the LAN monitoring function
may report a line fault or high line load only in a temporary high line impedance state. If a normal
state recovery is reported immediately, temporal high line impedance may have occurred thus there
is not any problem.

LAN Monitoring Threshold

Because the NEC Express5800/ft series detects hardware faults on the network in the driver level,
NEC ESMPRO Agent does not monitor line faults. Thus, the value set for "Line fault occurrence
rate" of a [LAN] tab of [NEC ESMPRO Agent properties] in the control panel is not used.

Status during CPU Module Diagnosis

While diagnosing a stopped CPU module, the CPU is no longer in the duplex mode and the CPU
and the memory cannot be used. However, the status of [CPU] and [DIMM] displayed under [CPU
module] in the FTServer tree on a Data Viewer becomes “Online” and the status color becomes
green.
