Digi RPM Configurable from Web User Interface or Command Line
Chapter 9 Digi Remote Power Manager (Digi RPM) 89
Serial Device Managed by a PortServer TS, but Powered by Digi RPM
The second configuration scenario involves a serial device, such as a
router or server, that is managed through a port on a Digi PortServer TS
device, but has its power supply mapped through the Power Management
feature. The Digi RPM and power-management settings are configured
and accessed through the Web user interface for the PortServer TS
device.
After configuration of the devices in this scenario is complete, you need
only reference the console management port on device server to also
manage power. The Power Management feature handles the relationship
of a specific outlet to a serial device as if the power supply were also
connected to the same port as the serial device. In other words, you do not
need to see the physical connection or remember which outlet controls a
specific serial device after configuration - the PortServer TS device server
does that for you. The following illustration shows a Sun server configured
through a serial port connection on the PortServer TS 16.
Digi RPM Configurable from Web User Interface or Command Line
Power management through the Digi RPM can be configured from either
the Web user interface or command-line interface for your PortServer TS
device that is connected to the Digi RPM.
From the Web user interface, which this guide emphasizes, power
management is configured through the serial port settings:
Configuration > Serial Ports > port > Port Profile >
Power Management
Once set up, power management equipment is monitored and controlled
at:
Management > Power
From the command line, the “set powerunit” command configures power
management options, and the “power” command controls and displays the
status of the Digi RPM. See the Digi One and PortServer TS Family
Command Reference for these command descriptions.
