Resource health status

PowerFlex Manager assigns health status to the resources based on the conditions described in the following table.

Resource health status
Icon Health status Description
Healthy

Indicates that there is no issue with the resource and it is working as expected.

Warning

Indicates that the resource is in a state that requires corrective action, but does not affect overall system health. For example, the firmware running on the resource is not at the required level or not compliant.

For supported switches, a warning health status might be because the SNMP community string is invalid or not set correctly. In this case, PowerFlex Manager is unable to perform health monitoring for the switch.

NOTE:If the resource group has VMware ESXi and is set to maintenance mode, a message is displayed in the View Details pane.
Critical
Indicates that an issue requiring immediate attention exists in one of the following hardware or software components in the device:
  • Battery
  • CPU
  • Fans
  • Power supply
  • Storage devices
  • Licensing

For supported switches, a critical health status might indicate that the power supply is not working properly or a CPU has overheated.

NOTE:If the resource group is in a power off state, a message displays in the View Details pane.
Health_Unknown Unknown

Indicates that the resource status is unknown.

For example, for a supported switch, an unknown status might indicate that the switch has been turned off or is still being discovered.

Pending

Indicates that the resource status is pending.

Service Mode

Indicates that the resource is in Service Mode.

NOTE:If the resource fails to exit Service Mode, an informational message displays in the recent activity.
