Fault Summary Area
The Fault Summary area displays in the upper left of Cisco UCS Manager GUI. This area displays a summary
of all faults that have occurred in the Cisco UCS domain.
Each type of fault is represented by a different icon. The number below each icon indicates how many faults
of that type have occurred in the system. If you click an icon, Cisco UCS Manager GUI opens the Faults tab
in the Work area and displays the details of all faults of that type.
The following table describes the types of faults each icon in the Fault Summary area represents:
DescriptionFault Type
Critical problems exist with one or more components. These issues should be
researched and fixed immediately.
Critical Alarms
Serious problems exist with one or more components. These issues should be
researched and fixed immediately.
Major Alarms
Problems exist with one or more components that might adversely affect system
performance. These issues should be researched and fixed as soon as possible before
they become major or critical issues.
Minor Alarms
Potential problems exist with one or more components that might adversely affect
system performance if they are allowed to continue. These issues should be
researched and fixed as soon as possible before the problem grows worse.
Warning Alarms
If you only want to see faults for a specific object, navigate to that object and then review the Faults tab
for that object.
Tip
Navigation Pane
The Navigation pane displays on the left side of Cisco UCS Manager GUI below the Fault Summary area.
This pane provides centralized navigation to all equipment and other components in the Cisco UCS domain.
When you select a component in the Navigation pane, the object displays in the Work area.
The Navigation pane has five tabs. Each tab includes the following elements:
• A Filter combo box that you can use to filter the navigation tree to view all nodes or only one node.
• An expandable navigation tree that you can use to access all components on that tab. An icon next to an
folder indicates that the node or folder has subcomponents.
Equipment Tab
This tab contains a basic inventory of the equipment in the Cisco UCS domain. A system or server administrator
can use this tab to access and manage the chassis, fabric interconnects, servers, and other hardware. A red,
orange, or yellow rectangle around a device name indicate that the device has a fault.
