Hi all,

I have an Ultimate Alpha workstation. Sometimes we get sporadic
temperature warnings (even after dust cleaning of the whole box)
sysconfig -q envmon shows
env_current_temp = 38
env_high_temp_thresh = 40

How can I increase env_high_temp_thresh to say 45?

I tried
- change sysconfigtab with sysconfigdb, boot no effect
- setting a varaible env_high_temp_thresh at
  console level no effect
- using envconfig -c ENVMON_HIGH_THRESH=45
  boot (although the daemon was restarted) no effect
- dxkerneltuner (no possiblity to change) no effect

Any idea? Or is this impossible? I was told a temperature of 45
would still be save.

Regards
Otto
