Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Version 7.4 User's Guide

Click the Power Supplies object to manage your system’s power supplies. Server Administrator monitors power supply status, including redundancy, to ensure that each power supply present in your system is functioning properly.

The Power Supplies object action window can have the following tabs, depending on the user's group privileges: Properties and Alert Management.

Properties

Subtab: Elements

Under the Properties tab, you can:

• View information about your power supply redundancy attributes.
• Check the status of individual power supply elements, including the Firmware Version of the power supply, Rated Input Wattage, and Maximum Output Wattage. The Rated Input Wattage attribute is displayed only on PMBus systems starting 11G.

Alert Management

Subtabs: Alert Actions | SNMP Traps

Under the Alert Management tab, you can:

• View current alert actions settings and set the alert actions that you want to be performed in the event that a system power returns a warning or failure value.
• Configure Platform Event Alert destinations for IPv6 addresses.
• View current SNMP trap alert thresholds and set the alert threshold levels for system power watts. The selected traps are triggered if the system generates a corresponding event at the selected severity level.
