Default threshold values are stored in Sensor Data Records (SDR) in nonvolatile storage on the baseboard.
These values are determined and configured during baseboard manufacturing and are therefore not
documented in this manual.
Event indications may be generated if restoring the default threshold value crosses the current sensor value.
For example:
• User defined threshold limit 13.5V
• Current sensor value 13.0V
• Default threshold value 12.5V
When you select the Restore Factory Defaults action, the restore may cause a threshold crossing. In the
above example, PIC would detect a threshold crossing and generate an event indication. The actions
associated with that indication would occur.
To avoid the possibility of unwanted event indications when restoring default settings, adjust the user-
defined threshold value so the current sensor value is not between the user-defined threshold value and the
default threshold value.
PIC Event Messages
Event actions that you can specify in PIC include alert messages that may be displayed at the server, sent in
a broadcast, or sent in an e-mail message. The message text is based on the event information. The text
contains the DMI group and information about the attribute that caused the error.
Messages Displayed at the Server
The general format of messages that display at the server is:
Event reported for <attribute_name> attribute in the <group_name> group
For example, the message:
Event reported for Upper Critical Threshold attribute in the
Temperature Sensor group
means that one of the system’s temperature sensors reported a value above the upper critical threshold you
have set.
Broadcast Messages
Table 4-6 lists broadcast messages that can be sent across the network to management stations. These
messages will appear on the display of any computer logged into the server or with a network drive mapped
to the affected server. The general format of broadcast messages is:
Check <group_name> at server <server_name>
Table 4-6 Broadcast Messages
Message Description
Check Temperature Sensor at <server>
Check Temperature Probe at <server>
A temperature sensor reported a change in state
(OK/Noncritical/Critical).
Check Voltage Sensor at <server>
Check Voltage Probe at <server>
A voltage sensor reported a change in state
(OK/Noncritical/Critical).
