130 omconfig: Managing Components Using the Instrumentation Service

NOTE: This command is applicable to selected Dell yx0x systems that support

PMBus only.

NOTE: Power monitoring requires license to configure the power budget

information. If the appropriate license is not installed or has expired, the system

displays an error message. For more information, see The Dell Licensing

Management Guide on support.dell.com.

Default Warning Thresholds

NOTE: Sensor managing capabilities vary across systems.

To set both the upper and lower power consumption probe warning threshold

values to the recommended default value, type:

omconfig chassis pwrmonitoring config=probe index=

0 warnthresh=settodefault

omconfig mainsystem pwrmonitoring config=probe

index=0 warnthresh=settodefault

You cannot default one value and set another. If you default the minimum

warning threshold value, you are also selecting the default value for the

maximum warning threshold value.

Specify a Value for Warning Thresholds

If you prefer to specify values for the power consumption probe warning

thresholds, you must specify the number of the probe you are configuring and

the warning threshold value. Configure the values to display either in BTU/hr

or Watts. In the following example, the probe that is being configured is

probe 4:

omconfig chassis pwrmonitoring config=probe index=

4 warnthresh=325 unit=watt

omconfig mainsystem pwrmonitoring config=probe

index=4 warnthresh=325 unit=btuphr

When you issue the command and the system sets the values you specify, the

following message is displayed:

Power consumption probe warning threshold(s) set

successfully.
