5.2 Temperature Sensors
There are a variety of temperature sensors that can be implemented on Intel
®
Server Systems. They are split into various types each
with their own events that can be logged.
 Threshold-based Temperature
 Thermal Margin
 Processor Thermal Control %
 Processor DTS Thermal Margin (Monitor only)
 Discrete Thermal
 DIMM Thermal Trip
5.2.1 Threshold-based Temperature Sensors
Threshold-based temperature sensors are sensors that report an actual temperature. These are linear, threshold-based sensors. In
most Intel
®
Server Systems, multiple sensors are defined: front panel temperature and baseboard temperature. There are also
multiple other sensors that can be defined and are platform-specific. Most of these sensors typically have upper and lower thresholds
set – upper to warn in case of an over-temperature situation, lower to warn against sensor failure (temperature sensors typically read
out 0 if they stop working).
