Edit Temperature Probes
NOTE: When assigning probe threshold values, Server Administrator sometimes rounds the minimum or maximum values you enter to the closest assignable value.
Status Indicates whether the event type for this probe is Normal/OK, Warning/Noncritical, or Critical/Failure.
Reading Displays a snapshot of temperature measured by the probe at a given time.
Minimum Failure Displays the lowest acceptable temperature that is required for system operation. Values that fall below this temperature result in critical/failure events.
Maximum Failure Displays the highest acceptable temperature that is required for system operation. Values that exceed this temperature result in critical/failure events.
Threshold Settings
Set to Default Sets the minimum and maximum temperature value for a warning event at the default value.
NOTE: Systems that contain embedded systems management (ESM3) capabilities do not allow you to set warning threshold default values.
Set to Values Allows power users and administrators to specify a minimum and maximum value for temperatures that are to trigger a warning event.
NOTE: Set minimum and maximum temperature probe threshold values for an external chassis to whole numbers only.
Minimum Warning Threshold Displays the lowest acceptable temperature that is recommended for this system component. Values that fall below this temperature level result in warning events.
Maximum Warning Threshold Displays the highest acceptable temperature that is recommended for this system component. Values that exceed this temperature result in warning events.
