Fault Monitoring
The Faults tab displays information to help you monitor your devices. All the device information shown under this tab is polled from the devices in your network.
Following are the subtabs under Faults:
Note
Some of the subtabs may not be visible to some users.
•
Display Faults—See Displaying Faults

Displaying Faults
This window displays device fault information. A fault is an abnormal condition that occurs when a system component exceeds a performance threshold or is not functioning properly. See Specifying Fault Thresholds to set threshold levels.
A fault can also occur when a system policy is violated. See Notification Settings to set policies.
Displayed fault information is retained by default for 30 days. To change the default, see Managing System Parameters.
Using this option you can view faults. You can also:
•
Clear Faults—See Clearing Summary Table Faults
•
Acknowledge the Faults—See Acknowledging Faults
Note
Your login determines whether you can use this option.

Understanding Fault States
Faults can be in any of the following states:
•
Active—This is a state in which at least one of the conditions contributing to the fault is broken.
For example, the CPU utilization threshold has three states: OK, Degraded and Overloaded. In this case, OK is the `best' state and Overloaded and Degraded are `broken' states. Similarly, a port threshold might have an Up and a Down state, where Up is the `best' state and Down is the `broken' state.
•
Acknowledged—This is a state in which you have selected an Active fault from the Fault Summary, and Acknowledged it. The fault is removed from the Active list, but the conditions contributing to the fault still exist.
Faults can be acknowledged from the Summary Page. See Acknowledging Faults
•
Cleared—This is a state in which all the conditions contributing to the fault are in their best state.
Faults generated by polling are automatically cleared based on polled data. When the fault has not been generated by polling, or when polling has been disabled, the fault can be manually cleared from the following places:
–
Summary Page—See Clearing Summary Table Faults.
–
Fault Details Window—See Viewing Fault Details.
–
Thresholds and Policies—See Viewing Current Faults
