how do you detect hardware error?
</div>


<div>
From the alert message at the console pc and from the log.<br />
But I need to have a mail if something happen in the weekend.<br />
That why I am looking for a script, to read the alert, and send a mail.<br />
<br />

Keep in mind that &quot;hardware error&quot; and &quot;e-mail&quot; can be mutually exclusive. E.g., if the failing component is a network adapter, it's going to be a challenge pushing e-mail out to the network.<br />

LOL! Thanks Tom. &nbsp;That is a really good point. &nbsp; However, that is going to be a common thread in all scenarios regardless of a home grown API, third party app and even IBM ECS since that even uses the Internet now. &nbsp;<br />

To cover that, you need to have ECS dialing through a modem and maybe an app like CCSS notifying via pager.<br />

Send mail on Hardware error

IBM i, formerly known as AS/400, is a proprietary, midrange, object-based operating and application system. It includes a relational database, a menu-driven interface, support for multiple users, block-oriented terminal support and printers, and supports security, communications, and web-based application servers including Websphere, Apache and Tomcat.

IBM System i

IBM DB2 is a family of relational database server products developed by IBM that have been extended to support object-relational features and non-relational structures like JSON and XML. There are three main products in the DB2 family: DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (informally known as DB2 LUW), DB2 for z/OS (mainframe), and DB2 for i (formerly OS/400), plus a version for IBM's Virtual Storage Extended (VSE) operating system.

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
