Display Faults (`faultmgmt` Shell)

Note - The Oracle ILOM CLI includes implementations of Oracle Solaris fault manager commands, such as fmadm and fmdump, within the Oracle ILOM CLI shell. This feature is referred to as the Oracle ILOM faultmgmt shell. For more information about the Oracle Solaris fault manager commands, refer to Server Administration and the Oracle Solaris documentation.

Access Oracle ILOM.
See Access the SP (Oracle ILOM).

Access the faultmgmt shell.

-> start /SP/faultmgmt/shell

At the faultmgmtsp> prompt, display any current faults.
```
faultmgmtsp> fmadm faulty
No faults found
faultmgmtsp>
```
If a fault is found, information about the fault is displayed in seven fields:
- Heading – The time, UUID, MSGID, and severity of the fault are displayed.
- Fault class – A categorization of the fault according to the component and type of fault.
- FRU – The Oracle ILOM target, part number, and serial number of the faulted component.
- Description – A succinct statement of the fault.
- Response – A description of how the system responded to the failure.
- Impact – A description of the consequences if no service action is taken.
- Action – Additional tasks the user can do to supplement troubleshooting the fault.
This is an example of a power supply fault:

Note - The characters SPT at the beginning of the message ID indicate that the fault was detected by Oracle ILOM.
