Management Explorer
The DiagMonitor Management Explorer provides a two-pane view similar to the Windows
Explorer. In the left-hand pane, all the function groups to be monitored are listed in a tree
structure below the name of the station.
The right-hand pane of the window shows the individual devices of a function group. These
can be displayed in various views (see Selecting the view (Page 18)).
Alarm Manager
The DiagMonitor Alarm Manager is used to assign alarms to applications when they occur. If,
for example, a fault develops in a RAID hard disk array, the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology
(RST) program can be assigned to this fault (assuming it is installed). If a hard disk fault
occurs, the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (RST) software opens.
