Assigning Priority Levels to Servers
Server priority levels determine which servers the CMC draws power from
when additional power is required.
NOTE: The priority you assign to a server is linked to its slot and not to the server
itself. If you move the server to a new slot, you must reconfigure the priority for the
new slot location.
NOTE: To perform power management actions, you must have Chassis
Configuration Administrator privilege.
Using the Web Interface
To assign priority levels using the CMC Web interface:
1
Log in to the CMC Web interface.
2 Select Servers Overview in the system tree.
The
Servers Status page is displayed.
3 Click Power  Server Priority.
The Server Priority page appears, listing all of the servers in your chassis.
4 Select a priority level (1-9, with 1 holding the highest priority) for one,
multiple, or all servers. The default value is 1. You can assign the same
priority level to multiple servers.
5 Click Apply to save your changes.
Using RACADM
Open a serial/Telnet/SSH text console to CMC, log in, and type:
racadm config -g cfgServerInfo -o cfgServerPriority -
i <slot number> <priority level>
where <slot number> (1-16) refers to the location of the server, and
<priority level> is a value between 1-9.
For example, the following command:
racadm config -g cfgServerInfo -o cfgServerPriority -i
5 1
Sets the priority level to 1 for the server in slot 5.
