Table 89. sensorsettings (continued)
● Out of range settings is entered.
● Invalid sensor FQDD is entered.
● Invalid threshold level filter is entered.
Synopsis
racadm sensorsettings set <FQDD> -level Min <value>
Input
● <FQDD> — Sensor or corresponding sensor FQDD which needs a threshold configuration. Run the
command, racadm getsensorinfo to view the sensor FQDD. The R/W field in the output
getsensorinfo indicates if the sensor thresholds can be configured. Replace the <FQDD> field with the
corresponding sensor FQDD that needs a threshold configuration.
● -level — threshold level for the sensor setting. Values are Max or Min.
Examples To set the minimum noncritical threshold level for a power sensor type.
racadm sensorsettings set iDRAC.Embedded.1#SystemBoardCPUUsage -level Max
95
NOTE: The entered value must be lesser or higher than the sensor critical threshold limit.
serveraction
Table 90. serveraction
Description Enables you to perform power management operations on the blade system.
To run this subcommand, you must have the Execute Server Control Commands permission.
Synopsis
racadm serveraction <action> -f
Input
<action> — Specifies the power management operation to perform. The options are:
● hardreset — Performs a force reset (reboot) operation on the managed system.
● powercycle — Performs a power-cycle operation on the managed system. This action is similar to
pressing the power button on the system’s front panel to turn off and then turn on the system.
● powerdown — Powers down the managed system.
● powerup — Powers up the managed system.
● powerstatus — Displays the current power status of the server (ON or OFF).
● graceshutdown — Performs a graceful shutdown of the server. If the operating system on the
server cannot shut down completely, then this operation is not performed.
●
nmi — Generates the Non-masking interrupt (NMI) to halt the system operation. The NMI sends a
high-level interrupt to the operating system, which causes the system to halt the operation to allow
critical diagnostic or troubleshooting activities.
NOTE:
The halt system operation does not occur on systems running the Linux operating system.
● -f — Force the server power management operation.
This option is applicable only for the PowerEdge-VRTX platform. It is used with
powerdown,powercycle, and hardreset options.
NOTE: The actionpowerstatus is not allowed with -a option.
Output Displays an error message if the requested operation is not completed, or a success message if the
operation is completed.
