Configuring warning threshold for inlet temperature
You can modify the minimum and maximum warning threshold values for the system board inlet
temperature sensor. If reset to default action is performed, the temperature thresholds are set to the
default values. You must have Configure user privilege to set the warning threshold values for the inlet
temperature sensor.
Configuring warning threshold for inlet temperature using web interface
To configure warning threshold for inlet temperature:
1. In the iDRAC Web interface, go to Overview → Server → Power/Thermal → Temperatures.
The Temperatures page is displayed.
2. In the Temperature Probes section, for the System Board Inlet Temp, enter the minimum and
maximum values for the Warning Threshold in Centigrade or Fahrenheit. If you enter the value in
centigrade, the system automatically calculates and displays the Fahrenheit value. Similarly, if you
enter Fahrenheit, the value for Centigrade is displayed.
3. Click Apply.
The values are configured.
NOTE: Changes to default thresholds are not reflected in the historical data chart since the
chart limits are for fresh air limit values only. Warnings for exceeding the custom thresholds are
different from warning associated to exceeding fresh air thresholds.
Viewing network interfaces available on host OS
You can view information about all the network interfaces that are available on the host operating system
such as the IP addresses that are assigned to the server. The iDRAC Service Module provides this
information to iDRAC. The OS IP address information includes the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, MAC address,
Subnet mask or prefix length, the FQDD of the network device, network interface name, network
interface description, network interface status, network interface type (Ethernet, tunnel, loopback, and so
on.), Gateway address, DNS server address, and DHCP server address.
NOTE: This feature is available with iDRAC Express and iDRAC Enterprise licenses.
To view the OS information, make sure that:
• You have Login privilege.
• iDRAC Service Module is installed and running on the host operating system.
• OS Information option is enabled in the Overview → Server → Service Module page.
iDRAC can display the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for all the interfaces configured on the Host OS.
Depending on how the Host OS detects the DHCP server, the corresponding IPv4 or IPv6 DHCP server
address may not be displayed.
