1. A system management apparatus for a multi-shelf modular computing system comprising a plurality of components and a shelf management device capable of sensing a plurality of parameters/states, which each relates to one of the components, and generating an original alert information in a first format in response to an abnormal one among the sensed parameters/states, said system management apparatus comprising:

  • a receiving module, capable of communicating with the shelf management device, for receiving the original alert information in the first format from the shelf management device;

    a storage module;

    a parsing module, coupled to the receiving module and the storage module, respectively, for parsing the original alert information to generate a parsed alert information in a second format, and storing the parsed alert information into the storage module;

    a visualization mapping module, coupled to the storage module, for periodically retrieving the parsed alert information, if any, from the storage module, and generating a mapping indication in accordance with the retrieved parsed alert information; and

    a management module, coupled to the visualization mapping module, for receiving the mapping indication, and generating a visual alert information indicative of the abnormal one among the sensed parameters/states on the basis of the mapping indication.
