Set The Altitude Of The Server - Oracle sparc M5-32 Installation Manual

▼ Set the Altitude of the Server

You must set the server altitude so that the server can adjust its fan speeds and
monitor the surrounding environmental conditions required for its elevation.
Set the server altitude using the SP system_altitude property. This property is set
to 200 meters by default.
Setting the system_altitude property causes the server to adjust the temperature
thresholds so it can more accurately detect any abnormality in the air intake
temperature. However, even if you do not set the system altitude, the server still
detects and responds to any abnormality in the air temperature, such as the CMP
temperature.
1. Confirm that you are logged in to the Active SP.
See "Log In to the Active SP" on page
