MTBF Information Clear
The MTBF (Mean-Time-Between-Failures) information of a PCI Module may
be cleared (initialized). Your server manages the MTBF of each component.
Each time a fault occurs in a component in a PCI module, the module
recalculates the MTBF of the component. If the calculated value is lower than
the pre-defined threshold, the system performs one of the following predefined
three functions:
! Use Threshold: MTBF is calculated when a fault occurs. If calculated
MTBF is below the set threshold value, the device is stopped.
! Never Restart: The device is stopped whenever a fault occurs.
! Always Restart: The device is rebooted whenever a fault occurs.
Note: A disabled component with the MTBF lower than the
threshold, can be forcibly enabled by clearing the MTBF.
