Command Line Interface Guide
NOTE: The omreport chassis pwrmonitoring or omreport mainsystem pwrmonitoring command is
applicable from PowerEdge 10G system onwards that support PMBus and that have hot-swappable
power supplies and not systems that have a fixed, non-redundant power supply installed.
NOTE: Power monitoring requires license to report the details. If the appropriate license is not
installed or has expired, the system does not display the power consumption details of the system.
For more information, see the Dell License Manager Guide at dell.com/openmanagemanuals.
NOTE: To maintain consistency across the commands, the output format of this command and the
subsequent command levels has changed. So, you may have to change the user scripts as
applicable.
