HP Integrated Lights-Out 2 User Guide

• The Power Regulator for ProLiant section has the following options:
Enable HP Dynamic Power Savings Mode sets the processor to dynamically set the power
level based on usage.
◦
◦ Enable HP Static Low Power Mode sets the processor to minimum power.
◦ HP Static High Performance Mode sets the processor to the highest supported processor
state and forces it to stay in that state.
◦ Enable OS Control Mode sets the processor to maximum power.
After selecting a Power Regulator for ProLiant option, click Apply to save the setting. The server
requires a reboot for the change to take effect. These settings cannot be changed while the
server is in POST. If the settings do not change after clicking Apply, the server might be in the
boot process or require rebooting. Exit any RBSU program you are running, allow POST to
complete, and then try the operation again.
• The Power Capping Settings section enables you to view measured power values, set a power
cap, and disable power capping.
Measured power values include the server power supply maximum value, the server maximum
power, and the server idle power. The power supply maximum power value refers to the
maximum amount of power that the server power supply can provide. The server maximum
and idle power values are determined by two power tests run by the ROM during POST.
Power Cap Setting enables you to set a power cap on the server. After a power cap is set,
the average power reading of the server over time must be at or below the cap value. You
can set the power cap by entering either a watt or Btu/hr value (click Show values in Btu/hr)
or a percentage. The percentage refers to the difference between the maximum and idle power
values. The cap value cannot be set below the server idle power.
Power Capping Settings are disabled when the server is part of an Enclosure Dynamic Power
Cap. These values are set and modified using either Onboard Administrator or Insight Power
Manager.
