processor will send an alert if any monitored power source voltage falls outside
its specified operational ranges.

If you click a voltage reading, a window similar to the one in the following
illustration opens.

The Voltage Thresholds page displays the voltage ranges at which the Remote
Supervisor Adapter or ASM processor reacts. The voltage threshold values are
preset on the remote server and cannot be changed.

The ASM Web interface displays the voltage readings of the system board and
the voltage regulator modules (VRM). The system sets a voltage range at which
the following actions are taken:

Warning Reset

When the voltage drops below or exceeds the warning voltage range
and then recovers to that range, the server or ASM processor assumes
the voltage has returned to normal and no further alerts are generated.

Warning

When the voltage drops below or exceeds a specified voltage range, a
voltage alert is sent to configured remote alert recipients. You must
select the Voltage check box on the Alerts page for the alert to be sent.

Soft Shutdown

When the voltage drops below or exceeds a specified voltage range, a
voltage alert is sent to configured remote alert recipients and the server
begins the shutdown process with an orderly operating system
shutdown. The server then turns itself off. You must select the Voltage
check box on the Alerts page for the alert to be sent.

Hard Shutdown

When the voltage drops below or exceeds a specified voltage range,
