Event Monitoring Service

HP's EMS Hardware Monitoring

Hardware monitoring gives you the ability to detect problems with many of your system hardware resources. By providing immediate detection and notification, hardware monitoring allows you to quickly identify and correct problems - often before they impact system operation.

By default, EMS HW Monitoring is enabled on your system. Also by default, messages regarding major warnings, serious and critical events that occur on hardware being monitored will be:
- Written to /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
- E-mailed to root

All events will be stored in /var/opt/resmon/log/event.log.

EMS HW Monitoring can be reconfigured using the Monitoring Request Manager, /etc/opt/resmon/lbin/monconfig.

Complete information on using hardware monitoring is included in the EMS Hardware Monitors User's Guide, which can be downloaded from Hewlett-Packard's external web site at http://docs.hp.com/hpux/diag/.
