Sensor Type
-
The Sensor Type references the values enumerated in the
Sensor Type Codes
table
in the IPMI specification. It provides the context in which to interpret the sensor (for
example, the physical entity or characteristic that is represented by this sensor).
Event/Reading Type
-
The Event/Reading Type references values from the
Event/Reading Type Code
Ranges
and
Generic Event/Reading Type Codes
tables in the
IPMI specification
.
Digital sensors are a type of discrete sensors, which have only two states.
Event Thresholds/Triggers
-
Event Thresholds are supported, event-generating thresholds for Threshold type
sensors.
[u,l][c,nc]
upper critical, upper non-critical, lower critical, lower non-critical
uc, lc
upper critical, lower critical
-
Event
Triggers are supported, event-generating offsets for Discrete type sensors.
You can find the offsets in the
Generic Event/Reading Type Codes
or
Sensor Type
Codes
tables in the IPMI specification, depending on whether the sensor
event/reading type is generic or a sensor specific response.
Assertion/Deassertion
Assertion and Deassertion
indicators reveal what type of events this sensor generates:
-
As:
Assertions
-
De:
Deassertion
Readable Value/Offsets
-
Readable Value indicates the type of value returned for threshold and other non-
discrete type sensors.
-
Readable Offsets indicates the offsets for discrete sensors that are readable via the
Get Sensor Reading
command. Unless otherwise indicated, all Event Triggers are
readable (for example,
Readable Offsets
consists of the reading type offsets that do
not generate events).
Event Data
-
This is the data included in an event message generated by the associated sensor.
-
For threshold-based sensors, the following abbreviations are used:
o
R: Reading value
o
T: Threshold value
Re-arm Sensors
The re-arm is a request from the event status for a sensor to be rechecked and updated
upon a transition between good and bad states. The sensors can be re-armed manually
or automatically. This column indicates the type supported by the sensor. The following
abbreviations are used in the comment column to describe a sensor:
-
A:
Auto-re-arm
-
M: Manual re-arm
