Client SSU (CSSU) Details
If a power supply reports a predictive failure condition, PIC reports the status as a noncritical condition in
the health branch and carries out the requested event actions.
If a power supply fails, PIC reports the failure as a critical condition in the health branch and carries out the
requested event actions. PIC also reports the system power as nonredundant and as a noncritical condition
in the health branch, and carries out any requested event actions.
If a power supply fails or if the surplus power on the system is less than the amount provided by one power
supply, PIC reports that the system power is nonredundant. It reports this condition as a noncritical status
in the health branch and carries out the requested event actions.
For systems that do not support power-supply sensors, PIC does not display the Power Unit or Power Supply
items.
Redundant Power Supply
PIC supports redundant hot-swap power supplies (for example, power supplies that can be removed and
reinserted while the system is running). If a hot-swap power supply is removed while the system is running,
PIC sends an alert message to the console and refreshes the PIC interface to show which hot-swap power
supply has been removed. When a power supply is inserted or reinserted, PIC sends an alert message to the
console and refreshes the PIC interface to show the status of the newly inserted power-supply unit.
Processor
The processor sensor screen displays information and status about each processor. From this screen, you can
find out the type and speed of the processor. Click the Sensor Information tab to display sensor-specific
information (not all servers support this function).
For baseboards that support it, PIC monitors processor failures during runtime and system boot operations
on the managed server. If a supported baseboard includes multiple processors, each processor can be
configured and monitored separately through PIC. If a processor failure is detected, the failure is reported as
a critical condition in the health branch of PIC, and the requested event actions are carried out.
System Slots
ISM gathers sensor information and slot status on all slots in the managed server. The slots are categorized
into two groups:
• PCI Hot-Plug (PHP) slots, if the server hardware supports PCI Hot-Plug
• All other non-PHP system slots
Slot names containing PCI 64bit identify PHP slots. For PHP slots, there are three tabs available in the
presentation pane: Sensor Information, Sensor Status, and Alert Actions.
For non-PHP slots, PIC displays only the Sensor Information details.
System Information
PIC gathers information on field replaceable unit (FRU) components installed in your managed server. This
information includes a component description, manufacturer, model, part number, component number,
serial number, and revision level. PIC also gathers information on other system resources including
Operating System, BIOS, and the System Event Log.
The inventory screen displays components in the system, with a description, manufacturer, model number,
part number, serial number, and revision level of components on the baseboard. The inventory list includes
information on the baseboard, processor board, chassis, power-share board, hot-swap backplane, and
memory devices.
