Edit Power Consumption Probes

note.gif (1008 bytes) NOTE: When assigning probe threshold values, Server Administrator rounds the values you enter to the closest assignable value.

Status Indicates whether the event type for this probe is Normal/OK, Warning/Noncritical, or Critical/Failure.
Reading Displays a snapshot of the power consumption measured by the probe at a given time.
Failure Threshold Displays the highest acceptable power consumption required for system operation. Power consumption that exceeds this value results in critical/failure events.
Threshold Settings
Set to Default Sets the power consumption value for a warning event at the default value.

NOTE: Systems that contain embedded systems management (ESM3) capabilities do not allow you to set warning threshold default values.

Set to Value Allows power users and administrators to specify a power consumption value that can trigger a warning event.

NOTE: You can set threshold values for an external chassis to whole numbers only. If you attempt to set the threshold value to a number that contains a decimal, only the whole number before the decimal place is saved as the threshold setting.

Warning Threshold Displays the acceptable power consumption value recommended for this system. Power consumption that exceeds this value results in warning events.
