Hi All, We're running CentOS 5.5 (kernel 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5) on two Dell R910 servers. We're periodically getting CPU overheating messages spit out from syslogd:
Message from syslogd@ at Fri Dec 3 12:06:56 2010 ... server kernel: CPU60: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled Message from syslogd@ at Fri Dec 3 12:06:56 2010 ... server kernel: CPU28: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled Message from syslogd@ at Fri Dec 3 12:06:56 2010 ... server kernel: CPU24: Temperature/speed normal Message from syslogd@ at Fri Dec 3 12:06:56 2010 ... server kernel: CPU32: Temperature/speed normal The servers are well ventilated in a datacenter, and they both exhibit the same problem when under load. I think the fans are working OK, but maybe these CPUs just run a little hotter than others, which may be triggering the threshold in the kernel? Anyone else seen this before? lm_sensors doesn't work on these boxes. Any info on why it's happening, or a good way to query the CPU temps, would be much appreciated! TIA! _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list Linux-PowerEdge@dell.com https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
