NOTE: The NIC configuration information within the Server Administrator BIOS Setup screen may be inaccurate
for embedded NICs. Using the BIOS Setup screen to enable or disable NICs might produce unexpected results. It is
recommended that you perform all configurations for embedded NICs through the actual System Setup screen that
is available by pressing <F2> while a system is booting.
Currents
Clicking the Currents object allows you to manage current levels in your system. Server Administrator
monitors currents across critical components in various chassis locations in the monitored system.
The Current object action window can have the following tabs, depending on the user's group privileges:

Properties
Subtab: Current Probes
Under the Properties tab, you can:
• View the current readings and status for your system's current probes.
• Configure current probe warning threshold values.
• Set alert actions in the event that a current probe returns a warning or failure value.
NOTE: When assigning probe threshold values, Server Administrator sometimes rounds the minimum or maximum
values you enter to the closest assignable value.
