Incorrect Fault Management Health State Reported for NMS FMM Hardware Resources

Language:

Hardware Platform: Netra Modular System (NMS) Frame Monitoring Module (FMM)

Software: System Software 1.0; System Firmware 3.2.5.14

Issue: At the time of the Netra FMM release, Oracle Solaris Fault Management Architecture (FMA) was not supported. FMM alert notifications were incorrectly generated with a faulted health state. An OK health state should have been reported for the following Netra FMM hardware resources that were incorrectly reported as Faulted:

Fault fault.frame.computenode.deactivation.policy.mismatch Resource: /FRAME/FBN/ComputeNode
Fault fault.frame.computenode.activation.policy.mismatch Resource: /FRAME/FBN/ComputeNode
Fault: fault.frame.computenode.not-installed Resource: /FRAME/FBN/ComputeNode
Fault fault.frame.computenode.inactive Resource: /FRAME/FBN/ComputeNode
Fault fault.frame.computenode.activation.failed Resource: /FRAME/FBN/ComputeNode
Fault fault.frame.computenode.deactivation.failed Resource: /FRAME/FBN/ComputeNode
Fault fault.frame.computenode.communication-lost Resource: /FRAME/FBN/computenode
Fault fault.frame.computenode.link.fail Resource: /FRAME/FBN/computenode

Note - An OK health state indicates that the hardware resource is present in the chassis and in use. No known problems have been detect. A Faulted health state indicates that the hardware resource is present in the chassis but is unusable because one or more problems have been detected. The hardware resource is disabled (offline) to prevent further damage to the system.

Workaround: Disregard the Faulted alert notifications for the Netra FMM hardware resources listed above. These faulted alert notifications should be treated as an OK alert notification. For more information about fault management behavior in Oracle ILOM, refer to these sections:
