Threshold sensors provide a sensor property value, as well as upper and lower noncritical and critical predefined thresholds. Threshold sensors typically include temperature readings, voltage readings, or fan readings.
To obtain sensor readings using the ILOM CLI, you must use the cd command to navigate to the sensor target then use the show command to display the sensor properties.
For example, on some server platforms, you can specify the following path to obtain a temperature reading of a server’s intake:
cd /SYS/T_AMB
show
The properties describing the sensor target appear. For example:
Type = Sensor
Class = Threshold Sensor
Value = 32.000 degree C
Upper = non-recov_threshold = 80.00 degree C
Upper critical_threshold = 75.00 degree C
Upper noncritical_threshold = 70.00 degree C
Lower non_recov_threshold = 0.00 degree C
Lower critical_threshold = 0.00 degree C
Lower noncritical_threshold = 0.00 degree C
For specific details about the type of threshold sensor targets you can access, as well as the paths to access them, see show _CH_componentname_sensorname.
