The system monitoring cables are connected to all cabinets in the Lightning 9900 Series
systems, and report a variety of system parameters, such as component failure, fan speed,
power, voltages, and temperature, to ensure trouble-free operation. This network not only
provides for efficient predictive maintenance (replacing a component before it fails), but
also for the failure alert system to expedite system repair after a component has failed. This
information is passed to the Control Frame, where it can be viewed either locally by the
Service Processor (SVP) or remotely by the Hitachi Resource Manager 9000
