Configuring Settings for Faults, Events, and Logs
This chapter includes the following sections:
Configuring Settings for the Fault Collection Policy
Global Fault Policy
The global fault policy controls the lifecycle of a fault in a
Cisco UCS domain, including when faults are cleared, the flapping interval (the length of time between the fault being raised and the condition being cleared), and the retention interval (the length of time a fault is retained in the system).
A fault in
Cisco UCS
has the following lifecycle:
-
A condition occurs in the system and
Cisco UCS Manager
raises a fault. This is the active state.
When the fault is alleviated, it enters a flapping or soaking interval that is designed to prevent flapping. Flapping occurs when a fault is raised and cleared several times in rapid succession. During the flapping interval, the fault retains its severity for the length of time specified in the global fault policy.
If the condition reoccurs during the flapping interval, the fault returns to the active state. If the condition does not reoccur during the flapping interval, the fault is cleared.
The cleared fault enters the retention interval. This interval ensures that the fault reaches the attention of an administrator even if the condition that caused the fault has been alleviated and the fault has not been deleted prematurely. The retention interval retains the cleared fault for the length of time specified in the global fault policy.
If the condition reoccurs during the retention interval, the fault returns to the active state. If the condition does not reoccur, the fault is deleted.
Configuring the Global Fault Policy
Procedure
Step 1
| In the
Navigation pane, click the
Admin tab.
|
Step 2
| On the
Admin tab, expand
.
|
Step 3
| Click
Settings.
|
Step 4
| In the
Work pane, click the Global Fault Policy tab. |
Step 5
| In the Global Fault Policy tab, complete the following fields:
Name
|
Description
|
Flapping Interval field
|
Flapping occurs when a fault is raised and cleared several
times in rapid succession. To prevent this, Cisco UCS Manager does not allow a fault
to change its state until this amount of time has elapsed since the last state
change.
If the condition reoccurs during the flapping interval, the
fault returns to the active state. If the condition does not reoccur during the
flapping interval, the fault is cleared. What happens at that point depends on
the setting in the
Clear Action field.
Enter an integer between 5 and 3,600. The default is 10.
|
Initial Severity field
|
This can be one of the following:
|
Action on Acknowledgment field
|
Acknowledged actions are always deleted when the log is cleared. This option cannot be changed.
|
Clear Action field
|
The action Cisco UCS Manager takes when a fault is cleared. This can be one of the following:
|
Clear Interval field
|
Whether Cisco UCS Manager automatically clears faults after a certain length of time. This can be one of the following:
|
dd:hh:mm:ss field
|
The number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds that should pass
before Cisco UCS Manager automatically marks that fault as cleared. What happens then depends on the setting in the Clear Action field.
|
Length of Time to Retain Cleared
Faults Section
|
Retention Interval field
|
If the Clear Action field is set to Retain, this is the length of time Cisco UCS Manager retains a fault once it is marked as cleared. This can be one of the following:
|
dd:hh:mm:ss field
|
The number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds that should pass
before Cisco UCS Manager deletes a cleared fault message.

Configuring Fault Suppression
Fault
Suppression
Fault suppression
allows you to suppress SNMP trap and Call Home notifications during a planned
maintenance time. You can create a fault suppression task to prevent
notifications from being sent whenever a transient fault is raised or cleared.
Faults remain
suppressed until the time duration has expired, or the fault suppression tasks
have been manually stopped by the user. After the fault suppression has ended,
Cisco UCS Manager will
send notifications for any outstanding suppressed faults that have not been
cleared.
Fault suppression uses
the following:
Fixed Time
Intervals or Schedules
You can use the
following to specify the maintenance window during which you want to suppress
faults.
-
Fixed time
intervals allow you to create a start time and a duration when fault
suppression is active. Fixed time intervals cannot be reused.
-
Schedules are
used for one time occurrences or recurring time periods and can be saved and
reused.
Suppression
Policies
These policies define which causes and types of faults you want
to suppress. Only one policy can be assigned to a task. The following policies
are defined by
Cisco UCS Manager:
-
default-chassis-all-maint—Suppresses
faults for the chassis and all components installed into the chassis, including
all blade servers, power supplies, and fan modules.
This policy applies only to chassis.
-
default-chassis-phys-maint—Suppresses
faults for the chassis and all components installed into the chassis, including
all blade servers, power supplies, and fan modules.
This policy applies only to chassis.
-
default-fex-all-maint—Suppresses
faults for the FEX and all power supplies, and fan modules in the FEX.
This policy applies only to FEXes.
-
default-fex-phys-maint—Suppresses
faults for the FEX and all fan modules and power supplies in the FEX.
This policy applies only to FEXes.
-
default-server-maint—Suppresses faults for
blade servers and/or rack servers.
This policy applies to chassis, organizations, and service
profiles.
Note |
When applied to a chassis, only blade servers are affected.
|
Suppression
Tasks
You can use these
tasks to connect the schedule or fixed time interval and the suppression policy
to a component.
Note |
After you create a
suppression task, you can edit the fixed time interval or schedule of the task
in both the
Cisco UCS Manager GUI and
Cisco UCS Manager CLI. However, you can only change between
using a fixed time interval and using a schedule in the
Cisco UCS Manager CLI.
