To select a redundancy policy, type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisRedundancyPolicy <value>
where <value> is 0 (No Redundancy), 1 (Grid Redundancy), and 3 (Redundancy Alerting Only). The default value is 3.
For example, the following command sets the redundancy policy to :
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisRedundancyPolicy 1
To set the power budget value, type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisPowerCap <value>
where <value> is a number between the Current runtime Chassis Burden and 3371, representing the maximum power limit in Watt.
The default is 3371.
For example, the following command sets the maximum power budget to 3371 Watt:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisPowerCap 3371
To view the upper bound and the lower bound, type:
racadm getconfig -g cfgchassispower -o cfgchassispowercap <lower,upper> bound
where <lower, upper> is the lower bound and the upper bound limit.
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisPowerCap 3000
To enable the maximum power consumption mode, type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisMaxPowerConservationMode 1
To restore normal operation, type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisMaxPowerConservationMode 0
To enable the power remote logging feature, enter the following command:
racadm config -g cfgRemoteHosts -o
cfgRhostsSyslogPowerLoggingEnabled 1
To specify the desired logging interval, enter the following command:
racadm config -g cfgRemoteHosts -o
cfgRhostsSyslogPowerLoggingInterval
n
where n is 1-1440 minutes.
To determine if the power remote logging feature is enabled, enter the following command:
racadm getconfig -g cfgRemoteHosts -o
cfgRhostsSyslogPowerLoggingEnabled
To determine the power remote logging interval, enter the following command:
racadm getconfig -g cfgRemoteHosts -o
cfgRhostsSyslogPowerLoggingInterval
The power remote logging feature is dependent on previously congured remote syslog hosts having been . Logging to one or
more remote syslog hosts must be enabled, otherwise power consumption is logged. This can be done either through the web GUI
or the RACADM CLI. For more information, see the remote syslog conguration instructions.
To restore CMC power management, type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisServerBasedPowerMgmtMode 0
For information about RACADM commands for chassis power, see the cong, getcong, getpbinfo, and cfgChassisPower sections in
the Dell Chassis Management Controller for PowerEdge FX2/FX2s RACADM Command Line Reference Guide.
