IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter II, User Manual

Page: 79 / 132

Note: The hard shutdown alert is sent only if a soft shutdown alert has
not yet been sent.
If the system is monitored by a baseboard management controller
(BMC) instead of the Remote Supervisor Adapter II, the IPMI thresholds
that are supported by the BMC are displayed on the Temperature
Thresholds page. The Remote Supervisor Adapter II generates an event
when the threshold is reached. The BMC generates any shutdown
actions, if they are required.
Non-critical
If the BMC indicates that this threshold has been reached, a
warning event is generated.
Critical
If the BMC indicates that this threshold has been reached, a
critical event is generated.
Non-recoverable
If the BMC indicates that this threshold has been reached, a
critical event is generated.
Return to normal
If the BMC indicates that the value has exceeded any of the
three thresholds and then dropped below this value, any active
events are cleared.
4. Scroll down to the Voltages area. The Remote Supervisor Adapter II will send
an alert if any monitored power source voltage falls outside its specified
operational ranges.
If you click a voltage reading, a window similar to the one in the following
illustration opens.
The Voltage Thresholds page displays the voltage ranges at which the Remote
Supervisor Adapter II reacts. The voltage threshold values are preset on the
remote server and cannot be changed.
The Remote Supervisor Adapter II Web interface displays the voltage readings
of the system board and the voltage regulator modules (VRM). The system sets
a voltage range at which the following actions are taken:
Warning Reset
When the voltage drops below or exceeds the warning voltage range
and then recovers to that range, the server assumes that the voltage
has returned to normal, and no further alerts are generated.
Warning
When the voltage drops below or exceeds a specified voltage range, a
voltage alert is sent to configured remote alert recipients. You must
select the Voltage check box on the Alerts page for the alert to be sent.
