Users Guide

• View current alert actions settings and set the alert actions that you want to be performed when the removable flash media probe
returns a warning or failure value.
• View current SNMP trap alert thresholds and set the alert threshold levels for removable flash media probes. The selected traps are
triggered if the system generates a corresponding event at the selected severity level.
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.
Properties
Subtab: Voltage Probes
Under the Properties tab, you can view the current readings and status of your system's voltage probes and configure minimum and
maximum values for voltage probe warning threshold.
NOTE:
Some voltage 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.
Alert Management
Subtabs: Alert Actions | SNMP Traps
Under the Alert Management tab, you can:
