Keith Wesolowski recently announced that the Fault Management subsystem is now capable of :

1. sending basic fault information to a Network Management Server. Provides the same information than the one sent to the syslog daemon.

2. Providing more information on the errors as well as FMA configuration info on request. An Fault Management MIB describes what information can be obtained.

Available on Nevada Build 33 and later so soon in Solaris.

The long story in this blog post.

T: OpenSolaris, FMA, SNMP

Slides of a presentation made by Mike Shapiro at the OpenSolaris User Group in July 05. Proves the point of having a structured fault management architecture. Can be used in teaching FMA.

Excerpt : “While the long term plan is to enhance the Solaris environment to
make service recommendations based on the internal tracking of event rates, it is
currently necessary for Sun’s service organization to follow guidelines with respect
to servicing memory DIMMs.”

Not anymore! In Solaris 10, the fault manager daemon does that for us…
