Users Guide

Why are some of the fields in reports empty?
Cause: The fields may be empty in a report due to the following reasons:
When the device was not reachable for that duration.
When that category is not applicable for that device.
When the values are not defined for certain fields in Power Manager and these fields are part of the report.
For example, when you have not configured the power and temperature threshold values for a device, the following fields are added to
the report, but the values are not populated:
Upper Warning Power
Upper Critical Power
Lower Critical Temperature
Lower Warning Temperature
Upper Warning Temperature
Upper Critical Temperature
If you have configured the above threshold values and only when the threshold values are violated, the following fields are populated and
displayed in the report:
Lower Critical Violation Count
Lower Warning Violation Count
Upper Critical Violation Count
Upper Warning Violation Count
Why do I not see regular metric data points in the
metric graphs?
Cause: A metric graph having irregular metric points indicate that data was not collected for that device at that duration of time.
Why can I not clear the check box for policies?
Cause: The checkbox for policies in Power Policies page is disabled if that policy is being enabled or disabled or edited. After the job is
completed, you can clear the policy.
How do I see the old metric data?
Cause: The old metric data is not available after a few days because the data is deleted. This configuration depends on the selection of
Delete Power Manager data option available in Power Manager Preferences section.
Why are the values I set using threshold REST API
not configured?
Cause: If you use threshold REST API before installing and adding the devices to Power Manager, the values are not retained.
Resolution: Install and add the devices to Power Manager, and then use the threshold REST APIs.
