From 9ca8dbcc65cfc63d6f5ef3312a33184e1d726e00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yunhong Jiang Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2015 12:17:53 -0700 Subject: Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

They are often connected through an I2C bus, but some +are also connected directly through the ISA bus. + +The kernel drivers make the data from the sensor chips available in the /sys +virtual filesystem. Userspace tools are then used to display the measured +values or configure the chips in a more friendly manner. + +Lm-sensors +---------- + +Core set of utilities that will allow you to obtain health information, +setup monitoring limits etc. You can get them on their homepage +http://www.lm-sensors.org/ or as a package from your Linux distribution. + +If from website: +Get lm-sensors from project web site. Please note, you need only userspace +part, so compile with "make user" and install with "make user_install". + +General hints to get things working: + +0) get lm-sensors userspace utils +1) compile all drivers in I2C and Hardware Monitoring sections as modules + in your kernel +2) run sensors-detect script, it will tell you what modules you need to load. +3) load them and run "sensors" command, you should see some results. +4) fix sensors.conf, labels, limits, fan divisors +5) if any more problems consult FAQ, or documentation + +Other utilities +--------------- + +If you want some graphical indicators of system health look for applications +like: gkrellm, ksensors, xsensors, wmtemp, wmsensors, wmgtemp, ksysguardd, +hardware-monitor + +If you are server administrator you can try snmpd or mrtgutils. -- cgit 1.2.3-korg
