In HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM), a system has one of the following health status types:

Status IconIcon MeaningDescription
critical iconCriticalHP SIM can no longer communicate with the system. The system was previously discovered but cannot be pinged. The system might be down, powered off, or no longer accessible on the network because of network problems.
major iconMajorA major problem exists with this system, it should be addressed immediately. For systems running HP Insight Management Agent, some component has failed. The system might no longer be properly functioning, and data loss can occur. In Insight Manager (WIN32), this status was identified as Failed.
minor iconMinorA minor problem exists with this system. For systems running Insight Management Agent, some component has failed but the system is still functioning. In Insight Manager (WIN32), this status was identified as Degraded.
warning iconWarningThe system has a potential problem or in a state that might become a problem.
normal iconNormalThe system is operating normally. The system is accessible.
disabled iconDisabledThe system is suspended. This enables a system to be excluded from status polling, identification, data collection, and automatic event handling. On the Automatic Discovery page, if you select the option Automatically discover a server blade when its iLO is identified, new servers discovered through Integrated Lights Out (iLO) (for example, no operating system or IP address known) are shown as disabled, until the system is discovered with an IP address or operating system.
unknown iconUnknownHP SIM is not able to obtain management information about the system using SNMP or DMI. Although no management instrumentation information is available, the system can be pinged. It might have an invalid community string or security setting, or it might be an IP address that is no longer associated with a system.
 No StatusThe system has not been polled by one or more of the polling tasks since the system was discovered.
Informal iconInformationalThe system might be in a transitional state or a non-error state.

HP Insight Management Agent for Servers for Windows continue to use the terms Normal, Degraded, Failed, and Inaccessible. Minor and Major status are only associated with systems running these agents.
