You can use Storage Control to monitor the health of storage subsystems, storage pools, 
storage volumes, and fabric switches. 

Run the inventory against the Storage Control farm to see updated health status. Follow 
these steps to retrieve the health and alert status for the devices managed by Storage 
Control.

1. Select Resource Explorer



 All Systems. Select the managed device for which you 

want to get the latest health and alert status.

2. Discover and then unlock the device.

3. Select the farm that covers the selected device and collect inventory against it.

4. For DS3000, DS4000, and DS5000 TPC devices only: Under the farm, right-click the 

DSnnnn device, and select Collect inventory.

5. You will now receive TPC alerts for devices under the farm.

In this chapter we have covered management of the IBM Flex System V7000 Storage Node 
from CMM and FSM. For more information regarding CMM and FSM, refer to Implementing 
Systems Management of IBM PureFlex System, SG24-8060 and IBM InfoCenter:

Note: At this point, you will receive TPC alerts from the farm, but you will not yet receive 
alerts specific to any devices under this farm.

Important: You must repeat this step each time you want to check for an event on these 
devices
