Discover Faults (FMA)

The FMA shell is the preferred method for obtaining detailed fault information because it presents the most comprehensive view of the faults.

  1. Log in to Oracle ILOM.

    See Log In to Oracle ILOM (CLI).

  2. Start the fmadm shell, and use the fmadm faulty command to determine if a fault is shown.
    -> start /SP/faultmgmt/shell
    Do you want to start the /SP/faultmgmt/shell (y/n)? y

    If the output of the command shows a faulty component, refer to the SPARC M8 and SPARC M7 Servers Service Manual.


    Note -  Clearing a fault at the fmadm level does not clear the fault in Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center. You must clear the error manually.
