power_off_config

Description

A list of power off rules based on the monitoring state of the fans configured. These power off rules can perform different system power off types to protect a system that is not able to provide enough cooling due to a number of missing or nonfunctional fans.

Attribute Value(s)

• type - ["hard", "soft", "epow"]
  • "hard" - Perform a hard shutdown that immediately powers off the system.
  • "soft" - Perform an orderly shutdown requesting that the host OS power off the system.
  • "epow" - Sets the thermal alert D-Bus property that a power off is imminent after a service_mode_delay amount of time passes.
• cause - ["missing_fan_frus", "nonfunc_fan_rotors"]
  • "missing_fan_frus" - Power off due to missing fan enclosures
  • "nonfunc_fan_rotors" - Power off due to nonfunctional fan rotors(sensors)
  • "fan_frus_with_nonfunc_rotors" - Power off due to the number of fan FRUs with at least one nonfunctional rotor.
• count - integer
  • Number of the configured cause instances to begin the power off type

"hard" & "soft" type power offs

• delay - integer
  • Time(in seconds) to delay performing the power off after count instances of the cause criteria is met.
• state - ["at_pgood", "runtime"] (Optional)
  • at_pgood - At system pgood, the power off rule becomes valid. A power off rule of at_pgood can halt a system power on if the conditions are met.
  • runtime - At system runtime, the power off rule becomes valid. A power off rule of runtime only goes into affect after the system reaches runtime. (Default)

"epow" type power offs

• service_mode_delay - integer
  • Time(in seconds) given before the thermal alert D-Bus property is set to indicate that a power off is imminent if the count instances of the cause criteria still exists. This timer is canceled when the count instances of the cause is not longer met.
• meltdown_delay - integer
  • Time(in seconds) before a hard power off occurs after the service_mode_delay timer expires. This timer can not be canceled once started.
