Intel Platform Instrumentation Control (PIC) Console User's Guide
Overriding Power Off or Shutdown Action
Power off or shutdown actions can be globally overridden while allowing other event actions (e.g.,
paging, broadcast message, etc.) to take place. This can be done in two ways.
To override power off or shutdown actions during installation of the ISC software, select "Event
notification only" under the "Platform Instrumentation" feature in the feature selection dialog. By
default, during installation, the power off or shutdown actions are enabled.
If ISC has already been installed, the following is the corresponding configuration instructions for
each operating system of your server:
Windows 2000 Advanced Server
Set the NotificationOnly parameter in the %ISCPATH%\bin\lra.cfg file to TRUE and
reboot the server.
Linux Red Hat 7.1 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS 2.1
Set the NotificationOnly parameter in the /usr/local/isc/bin/lra.cfg file to TRUE and reboot
the server.
To re-activate the power off or shutdown action, set the NotificationOnly parameter in the
corresponding file under each operating system described above to FALSE and reboot the server.
Configuring Third-Party Event Actions
On the Alert Actions tab page, you can select actions that will take place when a third-party
component exceeds a threshold or changes state.
You can configure event actions for the following third-party components:
•
Adaptec SCSI
•
LSI (Symbios) SCSI
•
QLogic SCSI
•
Promise IDE
•
LAN Adapter
To configure event actions for third-party indications:
1. On the PIC main window, click beside the third-party component name in the navigation
pane.
2. Update the Alert Actions tab. Change the event actions associated with a threshold type or
state change condition.
3. Click <Apply> to save your changes.
