Temperature-Triggered EPR (Throttle)
24 Emergency Power Reduction (EPR) feature with OpenManage Enterprise Power Manager
Message ID—CPWR0050, Severity—Info, Category—Audit
Message—The Emergency Power Reduction feature is successfully enabled on the group <Group Name> by
using the temperature triggered policy <Policy Name>.
Note: Power Manager cannot apply Temperature-Triggered EPR (Throttle) when the group already has EPR
(Throttle or Shutdown) applied manually or when all the devices monitored as part of the group has EPR
(Throttle or Shutdown) applied individually. Following audit log entry is generated in this case.
Message ID—CPWR0023, Severity—Warning, Category—Configuration.
Message—Unable to enable the Emergency Power Reduction feature on the target because the feature is
already enabled on the target.
5.2 Disable Temperature-Triggered EPR
Manually disabling a Temperature-Triggered EPR is not supported. After the temperature normalizes, Power
Manager automatically removes the EPR after the next metric collection. The duration of metric collection is
based on the data gathering interval set in Power Manager Settings (Power Management > Settings) tab.
EPR Throttle applied by virtue of Temperature-Triggered policy is removed from Power Manager and the
target device when the corresponding policy is disabled, deleted or if the temperature threshold is updated to
a value higher than average temperature of the group.
