Re: Detect failed disk

QSYSMSG. must be owned by QSECOFR

In my opinion, it’s a must on every system.

Create it with any all object user that can change the ownership to QSECOFR. (Or of course just use QSECOFR to create it).

We recently had a system with a failed disk drive go undetected.

From my experience, the machine makes "noise" when a disk is even about to fail:
- amber LED (also visualized in the HMC)
- serviceable events in the HMC
- messages in QSYSOPR queue
- messages in the SST service log

I have at least a weekly look at the QSYSOPR queue for being alerted early.

There is also the option to create another admin-type message queue where only serious messages will be put into. Can't recall the name, though.

:wq! PoC
