Environmental Monitoring
Switch components use environmental monitoring hardware to detect transmit power readings, receive power readings, and
temperature updates.
Use the commands described in this section to:
Monitor the status of hardware components: power supplies, fan trays, and transceivers.
Recognize and troubleshoot over-temperature conditions.
Display Power Supply Status
To monitor the operational status of a power supply, use the show environment pem command.
Use the command output to verify the operation of installed power supplies. The current operational status (up or down), power
supply type, fan status and speed, and power usage are displayed. A Z9500 power supply is sometimes referred to as a power
entry module (PEM).

0 3 up AC up 18880 643.0
When an under-voltage condition occurs on a power supply (for example, a power cable is removed):
A Syslog message is displayed to inform you that the power supply is down. The power supply number (for example, power
supply 0) indicates the chassis bay in which it is installed; chassis bays are numbered 0 to 4, starting from the leftmost
bay 0. unit 0 refers to the switch itself.
