NAME
ipmctl-set-sensor - Sets the threshold or enabled state for PMem modules sensors
SYNOPSIS
ipmctl set [OPTIONS] -sensor (SENSORS) [TARGETS]
AlarmThreshold=(temperature) AlarmEnabled=(0|1)
DESCRIPTION
Changes the alarm threshold or enabled state for one or more PMem modules sensors. Use the command Show
Sensor to view the current settings.
OPTIONS
-f, -force
Changing the sensor settings is a potentially destructive operation which requires confirmation from
the user for each PMem module. This option suppresses the confirmation.
-h, -help
Displays help for the command.
-ddrt
Used to specify DDRT as the desired transport protocol for the current invocation of ipmctl.
-smbus
Used to specify SMBUS as the desired transport protocol for the current invocation of ipmctl.
Note
The -ddrt and -smbus options are mutually exclusive and may not be used together.
-o (text|nvmxml), -output (text|nvmxml)
Changes the output format. One of: "text" (default) or "nvmxml".
SENSORS
MediaTemperature
The PMem module media temperature in Celsius.
ControllerTemperature
The PMem module controller temperature in Celsius.
PercentageRemaining
Remaining PMem module’s life as a percentage value of factory expected life span.
TARGETS
-dimm [DimmIDs]
Update specified sensors on specific PMem modules by optionally supplying the PMem module target and
one or more comma separated PMem module identifiers. The default is to update the specified sensors
for all manageable PMem modules.
PROPERTIES
AlarmThreshold
The threshold value at which an alarm for the respective sensor will be triggered. The upper (for
temperatures) or lower (for percentage remaining) alarm threshold of the sensor. Temperatures may be
specified to a precision of 1 degree Celsius.

AlarmEnabled
Enable or disable the alarm threshold, where applicable. One of:
• "0": Disable
• "1": Enable
EXAMPLES
Changes the media temperature alarm threshold to 51C on the specified PMem module and enables the alarm.
ipmctl set -sensor MediaTemperature -dimm 0x0001 AlarmThreshold=51 AlarmEnabled=1
LIMITATIONS
In order to successfully execute this command:
• The caller must have the appropriate privileges.
• The specified PMem modules must be manageable by the host software.
RETURN DATA
For each PMem module, the CLI will indicate the status of the operation. If a failure occurs when
modifying multiple PMem modules, the process will exit and not continue modifying the remaining PMem
modules.
SAMPLE OUTPUT
Modify (Sensor) settings on DIMM (DimmID): Success
Modify (Sensor) settings on DIMM (DimmID): Error (Code) -
