4. Power Subsystems

The BMC monitors the power subsystem including power supplies, select onboard voltages, and related sensors.

4.1 Voltage Sensors

The BMC monitors the main voltage sources in the system, including the baseboard, memory, and processors, using IPMI compliant
analog/threshold sensors.

Note: A voltage error could be caused by the device supplying the voltage or by the device using the voltage. For each sensor it will be noted
who is supplying the voltage and who is using it.
