Measures reported by NimFanTrapTest
This test intercepts the fan failure traps sent by the storage, extracts relevant information related to the failure from the traps, and reports the count of these trap messages to the eG manager. This information enables administrators to detect the fan failures if any, understand the nature of these failures, and accordingly decide on the remedial measures.
The measures made by this test are as follows:
| Measurement |
Description |
Measurement Unit |
Interpretation |
| Num_messages |
Indicates the number of events of this type that were triggered during the last measurement period. |
Number |
The failure events may be generated due to the failure of fans of the Nimble Storage. If the failure events are not rectified within a certain pre-defined timeperiod, the storage will be shutdown automatically.
Ideally, the value of this measure should be zero. A high value is an indication of performance degradation of the Nimble storage. |
