23.Status via IPMI

The Status via IPMI function shows the current values and the min/max-thresholds of all fans, temperatures and voltages existing in the host system. Change the thresholds by editing the values and pressing Apply.

The first time you call this page, it can take up to two minutes until the sensor data appears.

Note: If IPMI is disabled, Status via IPMI and System Log via IPMI are not available (the menu options are not visible).

24.Event Log via IPMI

The Event Log via IPMI accesses the SEL (System Event Log) repository and reads every entry sequentially. The first time you use this function after starting DX User IP the complete repository has to be read, what may take 1 or 2 minutes.

After reading all entries, DX User IP displays them with their time, sensor and description in accordance with the filter settings. You have the choice between several pre-settings (i.e. last day, last week) or an exact declaration of the start and the end date.

Once you change the filter settings, click `Update' to update the shown entries. If the Get sensor names box is checked, all sensor IDs are shown with their respective names.

The time shown in the log entries is the SEL time, meaning it is independent of the system time. The SEL time is shown at the top of the log table. Click Clear Event Log to delete all entries in the SEL repository.

25.File transfer – Virtual Floppy

This feature does not currently work.

26.Power Control

The appearance of the power control window depends on the power control option connected to DX User IP and on the currently activated setting (discussed on page 40). There are 4 options available: Power control disabled. Internal power. External power. Power control via IPMI.
