## Starting and Stopping Monitoring on a Device

You can selectively start and stop the monitoring of a storage device. Monitoring continues when the device is stopped. However, email notifications do not occur for any faults that are detected while the device monitoring is in this state.

To start or stop monitoring for one or more devices:

1. Go to the Sun Web Console and click Storage Automated Diagnostic Environment.
2. Click Administration > General Maintenance > Start or Stop Devices.

The Start or Stop Devices page is displayed.

3. From the Reason for Change list, select the reason for the device change.
4. Enter any additional details on the change in the Information dialog box.
5. Do one of the following:

- Select the Start check box for each device for which you want to enable monitoring.
- Select the Stop check box for each device for which you want to disable monitoring.

6. Click Submit Changes to start or stop monitoring as specified in the previous step.
