Property Description
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown
• 2 = None - Indicates that currently the service is not employing any power
utilization algorithm. If the property value is 2 ("None"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 2 ("None").
• 3 = Custom Settings Based - Indicates that the service is employing power
utilzation algorithm based on a specific settings. This settings may be represented
by the DCIM_PowerUtilizationSettingData instance associated
• 4 = Maximum Performance - Indicates that the service is employing a power
utilization that yields the maximum performance for the affected managed
elements. If the property value is 4 ("Maximum Performance"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 4 ("Static").
• 5 = Minimum Performance - Indicates that the service is employing a power
utilization that yields the minimum power consumption for the affected managed
elements. If the property value is 5 ("Minimum Performance"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 4 ("Static").
• 6 = OS Specific - Indicates that the service is employing a power utilization
defined by the operating system. If the property value is 6 ("OS Specific"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 3 ("Dynamic").
• 7 = Active Power Utilization - Indicates that the service is employing a specific
algorithm to yield the best power conumption and performance for the affected
managed elements. If the property value is 7 ("Active Power Utilization"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 3 ("Dynamic").
PowerUtilizationAlgorithm
Describes the algorithm employed by the service for power utilization. Depending on the
performance and power needs of the managed element, the selection could be made for
the apropriate algorithm to be deployed for the power utilization.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown("Dynamic").
• 2 = None - Indicates that currently the service is not employing any power
utilization algorithm. If the property value is 2 ("None"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 2 ("None").
• 3 = Custom Settings Based - Indicates that the service is employing power
utilzation algorithm based on a specific settings. This settings may be represented
by the DCIM_PowerUtilizationSettingData instance associated
• 4 = Maximum Performance - Indicates that the service is employing a power
utilization that yields the maximum performance for the affected managed
elements. If the property value is 4 ("Maximum Performance"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 4 ("Static").
• 5 = Minimum Performance - Indicates that the service is employing a power
utilization that yields the minimum power consumption for the affected managed
elements. If the property value is 5 ("Minimum Performance"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 4 ("Static").
• 6 = OS Specific - Indicates that the service is employing a power utilization
defined by the operating system. If the property value is 6 ("OS Specific"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 3 ("Dynamic").
• 7 = Active Power Utilization - Indicates that the service is employing a specific
algorithm to yield the best power conumption and performance for the affected
managed elements. If the property value is 7 ("Active Power Utilization"), then the
PowerUtilizationMode is equal to 3
PowerUtilizationMode
Indicates the current power utilization mode implemented by the service. The mode
selection is a generally made infrequently as part of element configuration.
Possible values are:
• 0 = Unknown - Indicates the last requested state for the element is unknown.
