Either a red circle that contains an X or a yellow triangle that contains an
exclamation point and the phrase
One or more monitored parameters are
abnormal
If the monitored parameters are operating outside normal ranges, a list of the
specific abnormal parameters is displayed on the System Health Summary
page.
3. Scroll down to the Temperatures area. The Remote Supervisor Adapter II
tracks the current temperature readings and threshold levels for system
components such as microprocessors, system board, and hard disk drive
backplane.
When you click a temperature reading, a window similar to the one in the
following illustration opens.
The Temperature Thresholds page displays the temperature levels at which the
Remote Supervisor Adapter II reacts. The temperature threshold values are
preset on the remote server and cannot be changed.
The reported temperatures for the microprocessor (CPU), hard disk drive, and
server are measured against the following threshold ranges:
Warning Reset
If a warning was sent and the temperature returns to any value below
the warning reset value, the server assumes that the temperature has
returned to normal, and no further alerts are generated.
Warning
When the temperature reaches a specified value, a temperature alert is
sent to configured remote alert recipients. You must select the
Temperature check box on the Alerts page for the alert to be sent.
For more information about selecting Alert options, see “Setting remote
alerts” on page 27.
Soft Shutdown
When the temperature reaches a specified value higher than the
warning value (the soft shutdown threshold), a second temperature alert
is sent to configured remote alert recipients, and the server begins the
shutdown process with an orderly operating-system shutdown. The
server then turns itself off. You must select the Temperature check box
on the Alerts page for the alert to be sent.
Hard Shutdown
When the temperature reaches a specified value higher than the soft
shutdown value (the hard shutdown threshold), the server immediately
shuts down and sends an alert to configured remote alert recipients.
You must select the Temperature check box on the Alerts page for the
alert to be sent.
