Valid Parameters For Fan Warning Thresholds

The following table shows the valid parameters for setting fan warning thresholds:

Table 23. omconfig chassis fans or omconfig chassis fans

name=value pair Description

index= <

> Number of the probe or probe index (must specify).

warnthresh=default Sets minimum and maximum warning thresholds to

default.

minwarnthresh=<

> Minimum warning threshold.

maxwarnthresh=<

> Maximum warning threshold.

Default Minimum And Maximum Warning Thresholds

NOTE: Systems that contain ESM3, ESM4, and BMC capabilities do not allow you to set warning threshold values

to default values.

To set both the upper and lower fan warning threshold values to the recommended default value, type:

omconfig chassis fans index=0 warnthresh=default

omconfig mainsystem 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.

Specifying 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 the minimum and

maximum thresholds:

omconfig chassis fans index=0 minwarnthresh=4580

omconfig mainsystem fans index=0 minwarnthresh=4580

omconfig chassis fans index=0 minwarnthresh=4580 maxwarnthresh=9160

omconfig mainsystem fans index=0 minwarnthresh=4580 maxwarnthresh=9160

When you issue the command and the system sets the values you specify, the following message is displayed:

Fan probe warning threshold(s) set successfully.

NOTE: You cannot set the minimum and maximum warning thresholds for the fan probe on PowerEdge 9G system.

Omconfig Chassis Frontpanel Or Omconfig Mainsystem Frontpanel

Use the omconfig chassis frontpanel or omconfig mainsystem frontpanel command to:

• configure the power button and the Nonmasking Interrupt (NMI) button

• configure the LCD to display:
