Status

These icons represent the severity or health of the storage component. See Storage Component Severity for more information.

Name
This property displays the name of the temperature probe.

State
This property displays the current status of the temperature probe.
Ready — The temperature probe is functioning normally.

Degraded — The temperature probe has suffered a failure and is operating in a degraded state.

Failed — The temperature probe has suffered a failure and is no longer functioning. Storage Management may also be unable to communicate with the enclosure using SES commands. The Failed state is displayed when the enclosure does not respond to a status query from Storage Management for any reason. For example, disconnecting the SCSI cable would cause this state to be displayed.

Minimum Warning Threshold Exceeded — The enclosure's temperature has dropped below the minimum warning threshold. See Set Temperature Probe Values for more information.

Maximum Warning Threshold Exceeded — The enclosure's temperature has risen above the maximum warning threshold. See Set Temperature Probe Values for more information.

Reading
This property displays the current temperature of the enclosure as reported by the temperature probe.

Warning Threshold
The Minimum and Maximum properties indicate the temperatures currently set for the Warning threshold. See Set Temperature Probe Values for more information.

Failure Threshold
The Minimum and Maximum properties indicate the temperatures currently set for the Failure threshold. See Set Temperature Probe Values for more information.
