Chapter 8. Checking system health and performing tasks
through the text-based interface
Use the options under the Monitors heading in the Advanced System Management
window to view the status of the server that you want to access.
Note: F1 through F4 are the only function keys that are supported in the text-based
interface.
Monitoring temperature, voltage, and fan readings
The Remote Supervisor Adapter tracks the current temperature, voltage, and fan
readings and threshold levels for system components such as microprocessors, the
system board, and the hard disk drive backplane.
Complete the following steps to access the temperature, voltage, and fan readings
of the remote server:
1. Log in to the Remote Supervisor Adapter. For more information, see “Accessing
the text-based interface through a Telnet connection” on page 65 or “Accessing
the text-based interface through a direct serial connection” on page 66.
2. For an x330 server: Log in to the ASM processor. For more information, see
“Accessing remote adapters through an ASM interconnect network” on page 67.
3. Select Temperature, Voltage and Fan . A window similar to the one in the
following illustration opens.
4. Select the Temperature Tables option. A window similar to the one in the
following illustration opens.
ASMDEMO
The reported temperature for the CPU, hard disk drive, and system are
measured against the following threshold ranges.
Note: The temperature threshold values are preset on the remote server and
cannot be changed.
