HP ProLiant Server Power Management for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x

Note

The May 2012 release of PowerTOP v2.0 can be compiled on RHEL 6.3; it cannot

be compiled successfully on RHEL 6.0, 6.1, and 6.2 because the libnl library

on each of these versions is out of date. An additional RPM package pciutils-

devel

must be installed on RHEL 6.3. The RPM package is not included in RHEL

6.3 media.

Note

You can see the P-states (frequencies) information in the PowerTOP output only

when the HP Power Regulator is configured to OS Control mode.
