Environment status and configuration
If a PDU environment sensor is connected to the PDU, you can view the temperature and humidity
information.
Viewing the status
On the Status of Environment Sensor page, you can view the temperature and humidity status from
the PDU environment sensor.
Changing the environment configuration settings
On the Configuration of Environment Sensor page, you can configure the temperature and humidity
threshold values for the PDU environment sensor that is connected to the PDU.
Modifying the basic settings
Use the System menu to configure the PDU system parameters such as the system name, password, IP
address, date, and time. Some of these settings are described in the following sections.
Changing the system information
On the Configuration of IBM PDU page, you can change the system name and location, SNMP
community, and history log interval, and you can restart the PDU.
Displaying SNMPv3 information
On the IBM SNMPv3 USM Setup page, you can set up the configuration for user profiles of SNMPv3
USM related parameters. You can set up the user, authentication method, and privacy method.
Identifying the PDU
On the Identification of Power Management page, you can view the PDU information such as the part
number, serial number, and MAC address.
Note: You cannot modify the information on the Identification of Power Management page.
Changing the date and time
On the Date and Time page, you can change the date and time of the PDU. You can set the date and
time manually or synchronize it with the computer time.
Note: Changing the PDU date and time affects other PDU settings such as e-mail, traps, and logs.
Changing event alerts
If an event occurs within the PDU that triggers a trap, the trap information can be sent to a monitoring
application through SNMP. On the SNMP Trap Receivers page, you can specify the IP address of a
server on which a monitoring application is running.
Upgrading firmware
You can upgrade the PDU firmware on the Upgrade Firmware page. To update the firmware, type the
TFTP server IP address and the firmware image file name and click Upgrade.
Import configuration
You can import the configuration settings for the PDU on the Import Configuration page. The import
function updates the EEPROM of the PDU.
