Installation guide
Note:
▪ Sensor diagnosis targets the power-on machine where HW failure occurred.
Therefore, you cannot obtain an accurate result if you execute sensor diagnosis for the
power-off machine.
▪ When you executes sensor diagnosis for the machine which the OOB Management is
not enabled, sensor diagnosis sets faulted status and ends normally.
▪ The criteria of severity of sensor status are independent from event categories.
Therefore, sensor diagnosis may judge the machine is normal even when "Machine
status / Set faulted status by sensor diagnosis" policy action is set for the events
classified into failure category.
The following table shows the relationship among the type of triggered event, the
connection status and the machine status when the triggered event happens, and the
result of action in detail.

The sensor, which sent a
predictive event, is in critical
state.
This action sets faulted status
and ends normally.
The sensor, which sent a
predictive event, is in warning
or normal state.
There is no failure, and this
action does not set faulted
state and ends abnormally.
This action cannot get
information of the sensor
which sent a predictive event.
This action ends in a status
depends on the event severity.
If the severity of event is
critical, this action sets faulted
status and ends normally.
▪ This action could not
communicate with BMC.
▪ This action failed to execute
IPMI command to BMC.
▪ An unexpected error
occurred.
This action ends in a status
depends on the event severity.
If the severity of event is
critical, this action sets faulted
status and ends normally.
Other events
Do not depend on connection
and machine status.
This action sets faulted status
and ends normally.
The following table shows the relationship between power status of the machine and
result of action.
These situations have a priority over the above sensor diagnosis results.
