Events and Messages

Events and Messages

This topic lists the MegaRAID Storage Manager events that can appear in the event log.

MegaRAID Storage Manager software monitors the activity and performance of all controllers in the server and the devices attached to them. When an event occurs, such as the removal of a drive or the creation of a new drive group, an event message appears in the log displayed at the bottom of the MegaRAID Storage Manager screen. The messages are also logged in the Windows Application log (Event Viewer).

Each message that appears in the event log has a Severity Level that indicates the category of the event, as shown in the following table.

Table 2 Event Error Levels
Severity Level
Meaning
Information
Informational message. No user action is necessary.
Warning
Some component may be close to a failure point.
Critical
A component has failed, but the system has not lost data.
Fatal
A component has failed, and data loss has occurred or will occur.

The following table lists all of the MegaRAID Storage Manager event messages. The event message descriptions include placeholders for specific values that are determined when the event is generated. For example, in message No. 1 in the Event Messages table, ā€œ%sā€ is replaced by the firmware version, which is read from the firmware when the event is generated.
