Event Monitoring Service
Event Monitoring Service (EMS) is the framework for monitoring hardware and reporting events. Use EMS
to eliminate most undetected hardware failures that cause data loss or interruptions of system operation. You
can monitor a hardware device (such as a disk) for any unusual activity (called an event). When an event
