IBM Partner Pavilion Remote Supervisor Adapter Chapter 8. Checking system health and performing tasks through the text-based interface

Chapter 8. Checking system health and performing tasksthrough 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.

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 page67.

3. Select Temperature, Voltageand Fan. A window similar to the one in the

following illustration opens.

4. Select the Temperature Tablesoption. A window similar to the one in the

following illustration opens.

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.
