Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller 9 User's Guide

Viewing system components

The following components in iDRAC UI help you to monitor the health of a managed system:

• Batteries—Provides information about the batteries on the system board CMOS and storage RAID on motherboard (ROMB).
  NOTE:The storage ROMB battery settings are available only if the system has a ROMB with a battery.
• CPU—Indicates the health and state of the CPUs in a managed system. It also reports processor automatic throttling and predictive failure.
• Memory—Indicates the health and state of the Dual In-line memory modules (DIMMs) present in a managed system.
• Intrusion—Provides information about the chassis.
• Power (available only for rack and tower servers)—Provides information about the power supplies and the power supply redundancy status.
  NOTE:If there is only one power supply in the system, the power supply redundancy is set to Disabled.
• Removable Media—Provides information about the Internal SD Modules; vFlash, and Internal Dual SD Module (IDSDM).
  • When IDSDM redundancy is enabled, the IDSDM sensor status such as IDSDM Redundancy Status, IDSDM SD1, and IDSDM SD2 are displayed. When redundancy is disabled, only IDSDM SD1 is displayed.
  • If IDSDM redundancy is initially disabled when the system is powered on or after an iDRAC reset, the IDSDM SD1 sensor status is displayed only after a card is inserted.
  • If IDSDM redundancy is enabled with two SD cards present in the IDSDM, and the status of one SD card is online while the status of the other card is offline. A system reboot is required to restore redundancy between the two SD cards in the IDSDM. After the redundancy is restored, the status of both the SD cards in the IDSDM is online.
  • During the rebuilding operation to restore redundancy between two SD cards present in the IDSDM, the IDSDM status is not displayed since the IDSDM sensors are powered off.
    NOTE:If the host system is rebooted during IDSDM rebuild operation, the iDRAC does not display the IDSDM information. To resolve this, rebuild IDSDM again or reset the iDRAC.
  • System Event Logs (SEL) for a write-protected or corrupt SD card in the IDSDM module are not repeated until they are cleared by replacing the SD card with a writable or good SD card, respectively.
    NOTE:When iDRAC firmware is updated from versions prior to 3.30.30.30, iDRAC need to be reset to defaults for IDSDM settings to appear in the Server Administrator's Platform Event Filter.
• Voltage—Indicates the status and reading of the voltage sensors on various system components.
• Cooling—Provides details about fans and hardware temperatures.
• Accelerator—Provides the details of the GPUs and Processing Accelerators.
• PCIe Slots—Provides details for all PCIe devices including PCIeSSD (NVMe) devices.
• Network Devices—Provides details for all network devices including DPUs.

The following table lists the system components that can be monitored:
