System Event Log Messages for IPMI 
Systems
The tables in this chapter list the system event log (SEL) messages, their severity, and cause.
NOTE: For corrective actions, see the appropriate documentation.
Temperature Sensor Events
The temperature sensor event messages help protect critical components by alerting the systems 
management console when the temperature rises inside the chassis. These event messages use 
additional variables, such as sensor location, chassis location, previous state, and temperature sensor 
value or state.
Table 5. Temperature Sensor Events
Event Message
Severity
Cause
<Sensor Name/Location> 
temperature sensor detected a 
failure <Reading> where <Sensor 
Name/Location> is the entity 
that this sensor is monitoring. 
For example, "PROC Temp" or 
"Planar Temp." Reading is 
specified in degree Celsius. For 
example 100 C.
Critical
Temperature of the backplane board, 
system board, or the carrier in the specified 
system <Sensor Name/Location> exceeded 
the critical threshold.
<Sensor Name/Location> 
temperature sensor detected a 
warning <Reading>.
Warning
Temperature of the backplane board, 
system board, or the carrier in the specified 
system <Sensor Name/Location> exceeded 
the non-critical threshold.
<Sensor Name/Location> 
temperature sensor returned to 
warning state <Reading>.
Warning
Temperature of the backplane board, 
system board, or the carrier in the specified 
system <Sensor Name/Location> returned 
from critical state to non-critical state.
<Sensor Name/Location> temperature 
sensor returned to normal state <Reading>.
Information
Temperature of the backplane board, 
system board, or the carrier in the specified 
system <Sensor Name/Location> returned 
to normal operating range.
The <Sensor Name/ Location> 
temperature is less than the lower warning 
threshold.
Warning
Temperature of the backplane, system 
board, system inlet, or the carrier in the 
specified system <Sensor Name/Location> 
entered into non-critical state.
