Alert management is common for Internal SD modules and vFlash. Configuring alert actions/SNMP/PEF
for either the SD modules or vFlash automatically configures it for the other.
Slots
Click the Slots object to manage the connectors or sockets on your system board that accept printed
circuit boards, such as expansion cards. The Slots object action window has a Properties tab.
Properties
Subtab: Information
Under the Properties tab, you can view information about each slot and installed adapter.
Temperatures
Click the Temperatures object to manage your system temperature in order to prevent thermal damage
to your system’s internal components. Server Administrator monitors the temperature in a variety of
locations in your system's chassis to ensure that temperatures inside the chassis do not become too high.
The Temperatures object action window displays the following tabs, depending on the user's group
privileges: Properties and Alert Management.
Subtab: Temperature Probes
Under the Properties tab, you can view the current readings and status of your system's temperature
probes and configure minimum and maximum values for temperature probe warning threshold.
NOTE: Some temperature probe fields differ according to the type of firmware your system has
such as BMC or ESM. Some threshold values are not editable on BMC-based systems. When
assigning probe threshold values, Server Administrator sometimes rounds the minimum or
maximum values you enter to the closest assignable value.
Alert Management
Subtabs: Alert Actions | SNMP Traps
Under the Alert Management tab, you can:
• View the current alert actions settings and set the alert actions that you want to be performed in the
event that a temperature probe returns a warning or failure value.
• View the current SNMP trap alert thresholds and set the alert threshold levels for temperature probes.
The selected traps are triggered if the system generates a corresponding event at the selected severity
level.
NOTE: You can set minimum and maximum temperature probe threshold values for an external
chassis to whole numbers only. If you attempt to set either the minimum or maximum temperature
probe threshold value to a number that contains a decimal, only the whole number before the
decimal place is saved as the threshold setting.
Voltages
Click the Voltages object to manage voltage levels in your system. Server Administrator monitors
voltages across critical components in various chassis locations in the monitored system. The Voltages
object action window can have the following tabs, depending on the user's group privileges: Properties
and Alert Management.
