ESMPRO Agent for Linux 3-25
BIOS and Agent Temperature Monitoring
Temperature sensor enabling and temperature monitoring may be set by
ESMPRO Agent or the BIOS Setup Utility. Temperature monitoring parameters
set in either utility are automatically set in the other utility.
IMPORTANT:
If the OS has ACPI functionality, the thresholds of the
temperature set in the BIOS are managed by the ACPI function of the OS. In
this case, temperature threshold values set in NEC ESMPRO Agent are
independent of values set in BIOS. The same temperature threshold values set
in BIOS must also be set in the NEC ESMPRO Agent for the agent to correctly
monitor temperature changes.
Memory Error Alarm
If a memory error alarm is sent as a trap to the manager, the bank ID field of the
alert viewer on the manager side is blanked. However, the syslog of NEC
ESMPRO Agent contains pertinent information about the same alarm. Confirm
the information and contact the maintenance person.
Thresholds
Thresholds for monitoring fans and voltage cannot be displayed/set from NEC
ESMPRO Manager. However, NEC ESMPRO Agent monitors them and issues
an alert if an error occurs.
Alerts
Detailed information about alerts is displayed on the alert viewer. However,
"Unknown" may be displayed for some of the information depending on the
alert.
