https://community.hpe.com/t5/server-management-systems/temperature-settigngs/m-p/3443587#M8206 We've got some problems with the air conditioners in our server room, we are in the process of getting another one to cope with the amount of heat we are producing but in the meantime I would like to use SIM to alert on rising temperature. I don't want to wait until the temperature gets up in the warning level, rather I want to be able to change the alert termperature to alert at a lower level. Is this possible?

Further, there are from 2-8 temperature sensors inside, and each one of them has an individually calibrated setting based on their proximity to the heat source. <BR /><BR />Your best bet is to get an environmental monitorlike the Console Management Controller.
