Server alerts

Server alerts are alerts that are generated by Unisphere for PowerMax itself.

Unisphere generates server alerts under the conditions that are listed in the following table:

Checks are run on 10 minute intervals, and alerts are raised on 24-hour intervals from the time the server was last started. These time intervals also apply to discover operations. That is, performing a discover operation does not force the delivery of these alerts.

NOTE: Runtime alerts are not storage system-specific. They can be deleted if the user has admin or storage admin rights on at least one storage system. A user with a monitor role cannot delete the server alerts.
