Temperature Sensor Events
The temperature sensor event messages help protect critical components by alerting the systems management console when the temperature rises inside the chassis. These event messages use additional variables, such as sensor location, chassis location, previous state, and temperature sensor value or state.
Event Message | Severity | Cause |
<Sensor Name/Location> temperature sensor
detected a failure <Reading> where <Sensor Name/Location> is
the entity that this sensor is monitoring. For example, "PROC Temp"
or "Planar Temp." Reading is specified in degree Celsius. For example
100 C. | Critical | Temperature of the backplane board, system board, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> exceeded the critical threshold. |
<Sensor Name/Location> temperature sensor
detected a warning <Reading>. | Warning | Temperature of the backplane board, system board, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> exceeded the non-critical threshold. |
<Sensor Name/Location> temperature
sensor returned to warning state <Reading>. | Warning | Temperature of the backplane board, system board, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> returned from critical state to non-critical state. |
<Sensor Name/Location> temperature sensor returned to normal state <Reading>. | Information | Temperature of the backplane board, system board, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> returned to normal operating range. |
The <Sensor Name/ Location> temperature is less than the lower warning threshold. | Warning | Temperature of the backplane, system board, system inlet, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> entered into non-critical state. |
The <Sensor Name/ Location> temperature is less than the lower critical threshold. | Critical | Temperature of the backplane, system board, system inlet, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> entered into critical state. |
The <Sensor Name/ Location> temperature is greater than the upper warning threshold. | Warning | Temperature of the backplane, system board, system inlet, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> entered into non-critical state. |
The <Sensor Name/ Location> temperature is greater than the upper critical threshold. | Critical | Temperature of the backplane, system board, system inlet, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> entered into critical state. |
The <Sensor Name/ Location> temperature is outside of range. | Critical | Temperature of the backplane, system board, system inlet, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> is outside of normal operating range. |
The <Sensor Name/ Location> temperature is within range. | Information | Temperature of the backplane, system board, system inlet, or the carrier in the specified system <Sensor Name/Location> returned to a normal operating range. |
