Edit Voltage Probes
Use this window to edit minimum and maximum warning thresholds for your system's voltage probes.
NOTE: The capabilities
for managing sensors vary by system.

NOTE: For systems
in which voltages are not configurable, the links are not enabled.
NOTE: When assigning
probe threshold values, Server Administrator sometimes rounds the
minimum or maximum 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 volts measured by the probe at a given time. |
Minimum Warning Threshold | Displays the lowest acceptable voltage that is recommended for system operation. Values that fall below this voltage result in warning events. |
Maximum Warning Threshold | Displays the highest acceptable voltage that is recommended for system operation. Values that exceed this voltage result in warning events. |
Minimum Failure Threshold | Displays the lowest acceptable voltage that is required for system operation. Values that fall below this voltage result in critical/failure events. |
Maximum Failure Threshold | Displays the highest acceptable voltage that is required for system operation. Values that exceed this voltage result in critical/failure events. |
Threshold Settings
Set to Default | Sets the minimum and maximum voltage values 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 Values | Allows power users and administrators to specify a minimum and maximum value for voltages that are to trigger a warning event. |
Set Alert Actions
For information on how to set alert actions for voltage probes, see Set Alert Actions.
NOTE: Due to
the limitations of the VMware ESXi operating system, the Setting Alert
Actions feature is not available with this release of Server Administrator.
For an explanation of other buttons present on Server Administrator
Action pages, see Server Administrator Window Buttons.
