Hardware temperature values in alerts.

I'm trying to modify the email alert for "Hardware component is in warning of critical state" to include the value of the component. Mainly so that we can get the actual temperatures in alerts for high temperatures. I'm seeing to come up empty trying to determine which variable to include. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

I think the variable is called "Value" and "Units." I can't check at the moment, but I'm at least 87.64% sure those are the names.

Nice. ${N=SwisEntity;M-Value} does give me the temp, but in that OTHER unit (centigrade)

Is it possible to convert this to Fahrenheit in the email? I found a 8 year old thread, but doesn't seem to work.

If you edit your Account profile in Orion, there is a setting to define what temperature measurement you wish to use. Set that to the 'other' Fahrenheit value and your alert variable should work

The account is setup for Fahrenheit and that's the unit that is displayed on dashboards. That doesn't affect the unit used in email alerts.
