Warning

When a temperature reaches a certain value, a temperature alert is sent to configured remote alert recipients (if the Non-Critical Temperature field is set to Enabled in the Critical/Warning Remote Alerts window). For information about setting the Temperature option, see “Configuring remote alert recipients” on page 77 and “Setting remote alerts” on page 81.

Soft Shutdown

When a temperature reaches a certain value higher than the warning value, a second temperature alert is sent to configured remote alert recipients (if the Temperature field is set to Enabled in the Critical/Warning Remote Alerts window). The server begins the shutdown process with an orderly operating-system shutdown. The server then turns itself off.

Hard Shutdown

When a temperature reaches a certain value higher than the soft shutdown value, the server immediately shuts down and sends an alert to configured remote alert recipients (if the Temperature field is set to Enabled in the Critical/Warning Remote Alerts window).

Note: The hard shutdown alert is sent only if a soft shutdown alert has not yet been sent.

Warning Reset

When the temperature returns to a value below the warning reset value after a warning was sent, the server assumes the temperature has returned to normal and no further alerts are generated.

5.Select Voltage Tables. The Remote Supervisor Adapter will send an alert if any monitored power source voltage falls outside its specified operational ranges. The system displays the voltage readings of the system board (planar) and the voltage regulator modules (VRMs).

The voltage tables windows display the voltage ranges at which the Remote Supervisor Adapter reacts. The voltage threshold values are preset on the remote server and cannot be changed.

The system sets a voltage range at which the following actions are taken:

Warning

When the voltage drops below or exceeds a specified voltage range, a voltage alert is sent to configured remote alert recipients (if the Non-Critical Voltage field is set to Enabled in the Critical/Warning Remote Alerts window). For more information, see “Configuring remote alert recipients” on page 77 and “Setting remote alerts” on page 81.

Soft Shutdown

When the voltage drops below or exceeds a specified voltage range, a voltage alert is sent to configured remote alert recipients (if the Voltage field is set to Enabled in the Critical/Warning Remote Alerts window).

The server begins the shutdown process with an orderly operating-system shutdown. The server then turns itself off.

Hard Shutdown

When the voltage drops below or exceeds a specified voltage range, the system immediately shuts down and sends an alert to configured remote alert recipients (if the Voltage field is set to Enabled in the Critical/Warning Remote Alerts window).
