To effectively monitor the health of the HPE MSA array, it is a best practice to:
Upload a log file into the
MSA Storage Health Check
web tool periodically to make sure the array is compliant with all best practices and current on all firmware.
Enable notifications through SNMP, email, or syslog settings in the user interfaces.
Set alerts to a Warning level to ensure that you are monitoring your system for possible failures.
Perform validation of notification settings periodically after firmware load or component replacement to guard against changes in infrastructure or configuration settings.
For information about operating systems supported by the HPE MSA arrays, see the
HPE Storage Single Point Of Connectivity Knowledge
(SPOCK) website.
