Discussion:
Disabling chassis intrusion alarm?

Dear all,
can I ask for a little help please?
I am trying to configure lm_sensors for a dual processor
Supermicro motherboard.

I'm using the Nagios plugin check_sensors,
which very simply does a grep on the output of sensors,
and returns an alarm sate if the string ALARM is present.
On this motherboard, the chassis intrusion alarm is often set,
and I'd rather not alarm on this.

Is there a way of switching off this alarm in sensors.conf please?


Here is the sensors output below.

Sure you can.

In the w83627hf-* section, add the line "ignore alarms", and that
should be OK.

I also suspect that you can reboot, enter the BIOS setup screen, say you
want to ignore the intrusion alarm, and be done that way.

You might also try placing a shorting jumper over the intrusion
detection pins on the motherboard to prevent the alarm in the future.

:v)
