Method Detail

notifyOfFault

public void notifyOfFault(FaultDetails fault)

This method should be called to notify the server about a problem or fault. It could also happen automatically through the autonomic manager, for example, but extra coding is required for that. The fault details are read and stored in a tree structure for analysis. Only minimal additional action is taken, such as removing or blocking the offending entity. See the documentation for more details.

Parameters:

fault - a description of the fault.

getFaultsTree

public Link_NM getFaultsTree()

Get the faults list tree.

Returns:

the value of faults.
