Informative
When the following changes occur, then corresponding Critical events become Informative events:
• Device/group is removed from Power Center.
• Event condition is removed from Power Center; for example, the Threshold settings.
• Event condition is updated in Power Center; for example, the Threshold settings.
• Power policy is removed or disabled.
• Policy Return To Normal event is triggered.
For example, when the Power/Temperature Return to Normal event is triggered, the corresponding
Critical or Warning event becomes an Informative event. Using the Average Inlet Temperature as an
example: If you set 50 °C as the Critical threshold and 40 °C as the Warning threshold, then Critical and
Warning events are sent when the average temperature reaches 60 °C. When the average temperature
returns to 45 °C, the Critical event automatically becomes Informative. When the average temperature
returns to 35 °C, the Warning event automatically becomes Informative.
