○ Filter Change Interval — This attribute is configurable in months and set to 3 months by default. This option allows

users to configure filter change interval from 1 to 24 months.

○ Filter Life Remaining — This attribute indicates the filter life span in days. The count down timer is activated when the

server is switched on. Once the it counts down to zero, the filter status goes to a degraded state.

○ Reset Filter Life — Enable users to reset the filter life. This loads the Filter Life Remaining time with the current Filter

Change Interval time. The count down starts when the system is switched on. Enabling this option activates a system

log—BEZL0007.

● Readings and alerts:

○ BEZL0003 filter dirty—indicates that a filter replacement is required. Occurs when the count down mode has reached

the time limit.

Active Sensing mode

The Active Sensing mode works as follows:

NOTE:

This mode requires active bezel filter. An unsupported configuration indicates that the filter baseline is not

supported and generates an error log—BEZL0006.

● When enabled, the iDRAC monitors the filter pressure sensor to determine the filter status.

● Reset Filter Life — resets the filter reading and sets it as a baseline reading.

NOTE: Resets the clean filter baseline against which degradation is measured. This activates system log—BEZL0007.

● Scheduling Active Filter Check — Default Monday 3:00 AM. Fans run at full speed to get viable airflow reading. This

happens by default every Monday at 3.00am. User may change to the preferred time.
