omconfig: Managing Components Using the Instrumentation Service 93
Default Minimum and Maximum Warning Thresholds
NOTE: Systems that contain ESM3 capabilities do not allow you to set warning threshold values to default values.
If you want to set both the upper and lower fan warning threshold values to the recommended default
value, type:
omconfig chassis fans index=0 warnthresh=default
You cannot default one value and set another. In other words, if you default the minimum warning
threshold value, you are also selecting the default value for the maximum warning threshold value.
Specify a Value for Minimum and Maximum Warning Thresholds
If you prefer to specify values for the fan probe warning thresholds, you must specify the number of the
probe you are configuring and the minimum and/or maximum warning threshold values. In the following
example, the probe that is being configured is probe 0. The first command sets only the minimum
threshold; the second sets minimum and maximum thresholds:
omconfig chassis fans index=0 minwarnthresh=3.31
omconfig chassis fans index=0 minwarnthresh=3.32 maxwarnthresh=3.38
When you issue the command and the system sets the values you specify, the following message appears:
Fan probe warning threshold(s) set successfully.
omconfig chassis fancontrol
Use the omconfig chassis fancontrol command to set fan speed. You can optimize speed for cooling or
for quiet operation. Table 6-6 shows the valid parameters for the command.

name=value pair Description
speed=quiet Sets fan speed for quiet operation.
speed=maxcool Sets fan speed for maximum cooling.
