Sun Server Hardware Monitor Sensor Group

The sunHwMonSensorGroup contains details about all of the server's hardware sensors, except indicators. The MIB objects that define the sensor properties are hierarchically and logically grouped based on device type, for example temperature or voltage, as well as sensor type, for example numeric or discrete.

The sunHwMonSensorGroup also contains a device-specific group for all significant device types, such as sunHwMonVoltageGroup or sunHwMonCurrentGroup. There is also a group for sensors that are not part of any device—specific group.

Each of the groups listed below contains two tables. One table provides details about all of the numeric sensors of this device type and the other table provides details about all of the discrete sensors of corresponding device type on the server.

The numeric sensors tables provide details about numeric sensors such as the sensor name, sensor type, the current reading, defined thresholds, current status, perceived severity, and the FRU in which the sensor is contained. The discrete sensors tables provide details about discrete sensors, such as sensor name, sensor type, sensor state, perceived severity, and the FRU in which the sensor is contained.

The alarm status of an entity can be one of the following, where critical is the most severe and indeterminate is the least severe.

• critical

• major

• minor

• warning

• cleared

• indeterminate

The sunHwMonSensorGroup contains the following subgroups:

sunHwMonSensorGroup Groups	Description
sunHwMonSensorAlarmStatusGroup	This is a scalar group that provides a single view of the alarm status of the server and aggregate status per device type such as rolled-up status of all voltage sensors. This is the main value used to obtain the overall status of a server. The individual sensor status is provided by MIB objects that are defined in the corresponding device-specific group.
sunHwMonVoltageGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all voltage sensors contained in the server.
sunHwMonCurrentGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all current sensors contained in the server.
sunHwMonPowerDeviceGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all power device sensors contained in the server.
sunHwMonCoolingDeviceGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all cooling device sensors contained in the server.
sunHwMonTemperatureGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all temperature sensors contained in the server.
sunHwMonMemoryGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all memory sensors contained in the server.
SunHwMonProcessorGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all processor sensors contained in the server.
sunHwMonHardDriveGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all hard drive sensors contained in the server.
sunHwMonIOGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all input/output sensors contained in the server.
sunHwMonSlotOrConnectorGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all slot or connector sensors contained in the server.
sunHwMonOtherSensorGroup	Contains two MIB tables that provide details regarding all sensors contained in the server that are not part of above defined device type groups.
