Chapter 3: Troubleshooting 3-8 Sensors Clicking on the Sensors tab of the IPMI View management session in the Viewing Window (as shown in Figure 3-4) provides you with detailed information on the sensors monitored by the BMC. It shows the reading of supported voltages and fan speeds and temperatures monitored by the BMC. The current reading is shown in yellow numbers, the high limits/low limits in red numbers and a description for the monitoring sensors in blue text beneath the monitoring sensor figures. Figure 3-4 Fan speeds have only a low limit, temperatures have only a high limit, and voltages have both high and low limits.
Refreshing Monitor Status You can configure the IPMI View to automatically refresh the monitoring status pe- riodically by checking the Auto Refresh check box and selecting the refresh period in seconds in the seconds list. Or, click the Manual Refresh button to refresh the monitoring status every time you need an update. 3-25
