9.4. Viewing Alerts
An alert is a notification that a system event occurred that requires attention. An alert is
always the result of an event, but not all events result in alerts. Some alerts require
additional troubleshooting.
Alerts provide notification of system conditions that might or might not also be covered
by Call Home Notifications. You should configure alerts so that they are sent to you
automatically when a given event occurs. Refer to
Section 7 Setting Up the System to
Handle Faults Automatically .
You can receive alerts through any of the following interfaces, which are described in the
following subsections:
• ESMPRO Manager AlertViewer
• Management firmware
Refer to Section 10 Troubleshooting Hardware Problems for information about using
alerts in troubleshooting.
