We're setting up temp/humidity monitoring in our server cabinets. These cabinets have different 360 models installed (G2,G3,G4's) - up to 32 in a cabinet. In researching the Operating Temperatures of these servers I noticed it's documented to be between 50-90 degrees. But what is the temperature threshold where a server will send a thermal condition alarm? Are they hard coded (I would think so) and is there a way I can view them? (BIOS maybe?) Our datacenter engineer's are asking as well. Thanks.
Steve, the thresholds are hard coded and they can be viewed on the Environment page of the System Management Homepage for one. However, be aware that temperatures inside the case do not correlate with ambient temperatures, so don't base any of your environmental settings based on this.
You can replicate the amount of servers and other equipment you currently have in your site and at the end you will get valuable information such as total BTU, total VA, Input Watt & Amp...
