The Oracle Hardware Management Agents use Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to monitor your Oracle hardware and storage devices. The software uses the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) protocol to accesses the Oracle ILOM service processors.
A monitoring policy is a set of rules applied to an asset. If a status changes or a threshold is crossed, an alert is created. Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center provides default policies for each asset type. You can create new policies or modify existing policies.
If a hardware asset can report a value for a hardware variable, Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center reports its current state and compares it to the threshold value.
Good – The hardware asset is working properly.
Unknown – Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center is unable to retrieve information from the sensor. The hardware asset is connected but is not reporting information.
Unreachable – The hardware asset cannot be contacted. This state indicates a network problem.
Warning Failure – Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center has detected a potential or impending fault condition. Take action to prevent the problem.
Critical Failure – A fault condition has occurred. Take corrective action.
Nonrecoverable Failure – The hardware asset has failed. Recovery is not possible.
Faulted – The hardware asset reports a fault. Contact service personnel to repair.
Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center monitors hardware assets according to the monitoring profile for that type of asset.
To see the default profile for monitoring a hardware type, see Hardware Monitoring.
You can view information about a hardware asset's Network Interface Card (NIC).
Connectivity is the network interface of the system.

Starting with Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center 12 c Release 3 (12.3.1.0.0), you can add CPU activation keys to Fujitsu M10 servers or you can move CPU activation keys from one Fujitsu M10 server to another Fujitsu M10 server. The CPU activation key is not limited to one machine, but the key is limited to the model of the M10 server, such as M10-1, M10-4, and M10-4S. For example, the CPU activation key from an M10-1 server can be moved to another M10-1 server, but not to M10-4 or M10-4S servers.
After CPU activation keys are added to Fujitsu M10 servers, some CPU resource based on the amount of the CPU Activation that is defined in the CPU activation keys, becomes assignable.
In the Summary tab of the M Series server, CPU Activation Keys section is displayed. The CPU Activation Keys section is displayed only for the Fujitsu M10 servers.
In the In the Navigation pane, under Assets, expand M-Series Servers, then click the server.
