Overtemp warning syntax

[Robert_Jewell]

I am looking for the syslog message that warns you of a temperature problem. I am assisting in setting up a script that will read syslog and warn of impending errors. It will be doing this by looking for keywords. What I am stumped on is thermal warnings. I cannot seem to find any examples anywhere.
I believe that the word "temperature" will suffice, but I want to be sure. I dont really have the means to test this on a system.
The OS will be 11.x.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Bob,

You want to look for:

1) OVERTEMP_CRIT (The temp is moving out of range)
2) OVERTEMP_EMERG (The temp is way out & system shutdown or damage will occur)

There's also a way to test this also...I'll look & if found point you to it.

HTH,
Jeff

Hello,

I believe if you use overtemp in your search, you will be fine.

hi,

I think a search of "OVERTEMP" will be good to go. I would defenitely more concerned about the cause of overtemparature if see this message at the syslog.

Hi Bob:

Again, take a look at this document too (TKB #KBRC00010118). This describes about the mail function:
