Power Management 237
Minimum System Power Displays the minimum system level AC power
consumption value (in watts) over the time since the user
last cleared this value. This property allows you to track the
minimum power consumption by the system (chassis and
modules) recorded over a period of time. Click the
Configuration sub-tab on the Budget Status page to clear
this value. The value for minimum system power is
displayed in both the watts and BTU/h units. This value is
reset with the Reset Peak/Min Power Statistics button and
also when the CMC resets or fails over.
Minimum System Power
Start Time
Displays the date and time recorded when the minimum
system power consumption value was last cleared. The
timestamp is displayed in the format hh:mm:ss
MM/DD/YYYY, where hh is hours (0-24), mm is minutes
(00-60), ss is seconds (00-60), MM is the month (1-12),
DD is the day (1-31), and YYYY is the year. This value is
reset with the Reset Peak/Min Power Statistics button and
also when the CMC resets or fails over.
Minimum System Power
Timestamp
Displays the date and time recorded when the minimum
system power consumption occurred over the time period
being recorded. The format of the timestamp is the same as
described for Peak System Power Timestamp.
System Idle Power Displays the estimated power consumption of the chassis
when it is in idle state. The idle state is defined as the state
of the chassis while it's ON and all modules are consuming
power while in the idle state. This is an estimated value and
not a measured value.
It is computed as the cumulative
power allocated to chassis infrastructure components (I/O
modules, fans, iKVM, iDRAC controllers and front panel
LCD) and the minimum power requirement of all servers
that have been allocated power and that are in the
powered-on state. The value for system idle power is
displayed in both watts and BTU/h units.
