EMC CX4-240 Storage Array Faulted during periodic SPS test

Hi,

We have storage faulted alarms on CustDB EMC storage CX4-240, this alarms will occur during SPS periodic test every Sunday 8am. But the alarm will cleared in a few minutes.

Does this mean we really have a possibility of faulted storage? or this is normal?

How can we change the schedule of SPS periodic test, say to a non-peak hours? and how to do this?

thanks!
