Displaying Information About Faults, Defects and Alerts
The following commands display detailed information about diagnoses made by the fault management system.
-

The

. -
The
fmadm list-fault
command displays all active faults. -
The
fmadm list-defect
command displays all active defects. -
The
fmadm list-alert
command displays all active alerts.
The fmadm list
commands are the preferred method to display fault, defect or alert information and determine the FRUs involved. However, the fmdump
command is also supported. Normally, fmadm list
is used to display active problems and fmdump
is used to display an historical log of problems on the system.
Caution:
Do not base administrative action on the output of the fmdump
command. Instead, use the fmadm list
output. The log files can contain error statements, which should not be considered faults or defects.
