3.7.2 Hardware monitor 
“Hardware monitor” can view the information of current voltage and 
temperature. 
Figure 3.7.2.1 
If “Auto shutdown” has been checked, the system will shutdown automatically 
when voltage or temperature is out of the normal range. For better data 
protection, please check “Auto Shutdown”. 
For better protection and avoiding single short period of high temperature 
triggering auto shutdown, controllers use multiple condition judgments for auto 
shutdown, below are the details of when the Auto shutdown will be triggered. 
1.  There are 3 sensors placed on controllers for temperature checking, 
one is on core processor, another two are on controller board. 
Controller will check each sensor for every 30 seconds. When one of 
these sensors is over high temperature value for continuous 3 minutes, 
auto shutdown will be triggered immediately.  
2.  The core processor temperature limit is 85 ℃ . The PCI-X bridge 
temperature limit is 80℃. The daughter board temperature limit is 80℃.
