Clear Hardware Fault Messages (Oracle ILOM)

After servicing the following components, you must clear the fault event in Oracle ILOM:

• Processor (CPU)

• PCIe card

• HBA

• Front Indicator Module (FIM)

This procedure uses the Oracle ILOM CLI interface. Use the Oracle ILOM CLI to access the Fault Management Shell, fmadm.

For more information about how to use the Oracle ILOM Fault Management Shell and supported commands, see the Oracle ILOM User's Guide for System Monitoring and Diagnostics Firmware Release 4.0.x in the Oracle Integrated Lights Out Manager (ILOM) 4.0 Documentation Library at https://www.oracle.com/goto/ilom/docs.

1. Log in to the SP Oracle ILOM CLI.

   Log in as a user with root or administrator privileges. For example, open an SSH session, and at the command line type:

   ssh root@ipaddress

   Where ipaddress is the IP address of the server SP.

   For more information, see Using Oracle ILOM in Oracle Server X7-8 Installation Guide.

   The Oracle ILOM CLI prompt appears: ->

2. To access fmadm, type:

   ->start /SP/faultmgmt/shell

   The fmadm prompt appears: faultmgmtsp>

3. To view a list of command options for displaying or clearing a fault with fmadm, type:

   faultmgmtsp>help fmadm

   The following output appears:

   where <subcommand> is one of the following:
   faulty [-asv] [-u <uuid>] : display list of faulty resources
   faulty -f [-a] : display faulty FRUs
   faulty -r [-a] : display faulty FRUs (summary)
   acquit <FRU> : acquit faults on a FRU 
   acquit <UUID> : acquit faults associated with UUID 
   acquit <FRU> <UUID> : acquit faults specified by (FRU, UUID) combination
   replaced <FRU> : replaced faults on a FRU 
   repaired <FRU> : repaired faults on a FRU
   repair <FRU> : repair faults on a FRU
   rotate errlog : rotate error log
   rotate fltlog : rotate fault log
     

4. Use fmadm faulty and the following options to display active faulty components:

   • -a – Show active faulty components.

   • -f – Show active faulty FRUs.

   • -r – Show active faulty FRUs and their fault management states.

   • -s – Show a one-line fault summary for each fault event.

   • -u uuid – Show fault diagnosis events that match a specific universal unique identifier (uuid).

   For command specifics, see the Oracle ILOM documentation at: https://www.oracle.com/goto/ilom/docs.

5. Type fmadm to clear the fault.

   Select acquit, repair, replaced, or repaired.

6. Close the Oracle ILOM session.
