Power Topology Profile
Version 1.0.0a 9
Power Topology Profile
1 Scope
The Power Topology Profile extends the management capabilities of referencing profiles by adding the
capability to represent a hierarchy of power sources: power supplies and external power domains, and
their redundancies. The profile provides also information on the client configuration of the power
hierarchy, and profile versioning for the schema implementation version information.
