Managing temperature settings

 

To change the temperature at which the PowerConnect B-FCX sends a warning, you must change

 

the fan speed threshold. To view the current temperature thresholds, enter the show chassis

 

command:

 

 

 

PowerConnect# show chassis

MAC 1 Temperature Readings:

Current temperature : 53.0 deg-C

MAC 2 Temperature Readings:

Current temperature : 53.0 deg-C

Temperature Readings:

Current temperature : 53.0 deg-C

Warning level.......: 60.0 deg-C

Shutdown level......: 80.0 deg-C

CPU Temperature Readings:

Current temperature : 47.5 deg-C

Enter a command to the following to change the temperature shutdown level from 80 deg-C to 90 deg-C.

PowerConnect#stack unit 1

PowerConnect(config-unit-1)#fan-threshold mp speed-3 50 90

Syntax: fan-threshold speed-3 mp <lowest value> <highest value>

The <value> can be 0 – 125.

Enter the show chassis command to confirm the change:

PowerConnect# show chassis
