You can view information about an appliance Storage Node at any time. For example, you might want to review appliance-specific information to ensure correct configuration and status.
Each StorageGRID Webscale appliance is represented as one Storage Node.
The Nodes page lists information about service health and all computational, disk device, and network resources for each appliance Storage Node. You can also see memory, storage hardware, network resources, network interfaces, network addresses, and receipt and transmittal information.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Appliance Model | The model number for this StorageGRID Webscale appliance shown in SANtricity software. |
Storage Controller Name | The name for this StorageGRID Webscale appliance shown in SANtricity software. |
Storage Controller A Management IP | IP address for management port 1 on storage controller A. You use this IP to access SANtricity software to troubleshoot storage issues. |
Storage Controller B Management IP | IP address for management port 1 on storage controller B. You use this IP to access SANtricity software to troubleshoot storage issues. |
Storage Controller WWID | The worldwide identifier of the storage controller shown in SANtricity software. |
Storage Appliance Chassis Serial Number | The chassis serial number of the appliance. |
Storage Hardware | The overall status of the storage controller hardware. If the Storage Node is a StorageGRID Webscale appliance and it needs attention, then both the StorageGRID Webscale and SANtricity systems indicate that the storage hardware needs attention. If the status is "needs attention," first check the storage controller using SANtricity software. Then, ensure that no other alarms exist that apply to the compute controller. |
Storage Controller Failed Drive Count | The number of drives that are not optimal. |
Storage Controller A | The status of storage controller A. |
Storage Controller B | The status of storage controller B. Some appliance models do not have a storage controller B. |
Storage Controller Power Supply A | The status of power supply A for the storage controller. |
Storage Controller Power Supply B | The status of power supply B for the storage controller. |
Storage Multipath Connectivity | The multipath connectivity state. For details about resolving performance or fault tolerance issues, refer to the E-Series documents. |
Overall Power Supply | The status of all power supplies for the appliance. |
Compute Controller BMC IP | The IP address of the baseboard management controller (BMC) port in the compute controller. You use this IP to connect to the BMC interface to monitor and diagnose the appliance hardware. This field is not displayed for appliance models that do not contain a BMC. |
Compute Controller Serial Number | The serial number of the compute controller. |
Compute Hardware | The status of the compute controller hardware. This field is not displayed for appliance models that do not have separate compute hardware and storage hardware. |
Compute Controller CPU Temperature | The temperature status of the compute controller's CPU. |
Compute Controller Chassis Temperature | The temperature status of the compute controller. |
Compute Controller Power Supply A | The status of power supply A for the compute controller. |
Compute Controller Power Supply B | The status of power supply B for the compute controller. |
Field | Alarm code |
---|---|
Storage Controller Failed Drive Count | BADD |
Compute Controller Chassis Temperature | BRDT |
Compute Controller Hardware | CCNA |
Compute Controller Power Supply A | CPSA |
Compute Controller Power Supply B | CPSB |
Compute Controller CPU Temperature | CPUT |
Overall Power Supply | OPST |
Storage Controller Power Supply A | PSAS |
Storage Controller Power Supply B | PSBS |
Storage Controller A | SCSA |
Storage Controller B | SCSB |
Storage Hardware | SOSS |

The Network Traffic graph provides a summary of overall network traffic.
Link mode | Bond mode | Individual HIC link speed (hic1, hic2, hic3, hic4) | Expected Grid/Client Network speed (eth0,eth2) |
---|---|---|---|
Aggregate | LACP | 25 | 100 |
Fixed | LACP | 25 | 50 |
Fixed | Active/Backup | 25 | 25 |
Aggregate | LACP | 10 | 40 |
Fixed | LACP | 10 | 20 |
Fixed | Active/Backup | 10 | 10 |
See the installation and maintenance instructions for your appliance for more information about configuring the 10/25-GbE ports.
The Worldwide Name for each disk matches the volume world-wide identifier (WWID) that appears when you view standard volume properties in SANtricity software (the management software connected to the appliance's storage controller).
To help you interpret disk read and write statistics related to volume mount points, the first portion of the name shown in the Name column of the Disk Devices table (that is, sdc, sdd, sde, and so on) matches the value shown in the Device column of the Volumes table.
