CPU/Fan/Chassis Temp Monitoring

I am polling a big ip for chassis temperature, fan speed, and cpu, but have no idea what to set the thresholds at on my monitoring system to indicate abnormal readings for these.

 

 

for example, my big ip is returning values of between 40 and 41 degrees celsius for chassis temperature. i would like to know what is the normal range, high range, etc, for each model of big ip. anyone know if this is documented anywhere?

    I think you can check the alarm thresholds by running:

     

     

    b db list |grep -A 2 platform.cpu

     

    db platform.cpu.fanspeed.threshold {

     

    3000

     

    }

     

    db platform.cpu.temperature.threshold {

     

    75

     

    }

     

     

    I couldn't find any detail on whether this changes per platform. I'd guess it's not set per platform based on SOL4481 (Click here).

     

     

    You could confirm this with F5 Support.
