Use this window to edit minimum and maximum warning thresholds for your system's temperature probes. All temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius.
| NOTE: The capabilities for managing sensors vary by system.
|
| NOTE: On servers installed in the PowerEdge FX2 series chassis, when Chassis Management at Server Mode is
None, then Server Administrator displays the server temperature sensors (not chassis temperature sensors).

| NOTE: When assigning probe threshold values, Server Administrator sometimes rounds the minimum or maximum values you enter to the closest assignable value.
|
Status
|
Indicates whether the event type for this probe is
Normal/OK,
Warning/Noncritical, or
Critical/Failure.
|
Reading
|
Displays a snapshot of temperature measured by the probe at a given time.
|
Minimum Failure
|
Displays the lowest acceptable temperature that is required for system operation. Values that falls below this temperature result in critical/failure events.
|
Maximum Failure
|
Displays the highest acceptable temperature that is required for system operation. Values that exceeds this temperature result in critical/failure events.
|
Threshold Settings
Set to Default
|
Sets the minimum and maximum temperature value for a warning event at the default value.
| NOTE: Systems that contains embedded systems management (ESM3) capabilities do not allow you to set warning threshold default values.
|
|
Set to Values
|
Allows power users and administrators to specify a minimum and maximum value for temperatures that are to trigger a warning event.
| NOTE: For an external chassis, you can set
Minimum Warning Threshold
and
Maximum Warning Threshold
values to only whole numbers. If you set the threshold value to a decimal number, only the whole number before the decimal place is saved.
|
|
Minimum Warning Threshold
|
Displays the lowest acceptable temperature that is recommended for this system component. Values that falls below this temperature level result in warning events.
|
Maximum Warning Threshold
|
Displays the highest acceptable temperature that is recommended for this system component. Values that exceeds this temperature result in warning events.
| NOTE:
Warning Threshold is not applicable for CPUs.

Set Alert Actions
For information about how to set alert actions for voltage probes, see
Set Alert Actions.
| NOTE: Due to the limitations of the VMware ESXi operating system, the Setting Alert Actions feature is not available with this release of Server Administrator.
