Monitor F5 device itself

Curious if any one knows how to monitor the F5 device itself? For example, if a hard drive within the F5 device has failed or if there is a bad memory chip inside of the F5 device or any other errors...

Hi,

 

 

LTM logs system related events like this to syslog facility local0. (/var/log/ltm). You could configure LTM to send emails, syslog messages or SNMP traps based on these events. The network and system management guide on AskF5.com should have details for your version.
