Figure 10: Disabling the Processor Power and Utilization Monitoring option in RBSU
Summary
HP ProLiant servers are capable of saving power both when the server is under load and when the server is idle. The
processor-based power management features supported in the hardware are enabled by the firmware automatically,
and are used in close coordination between the firmware and the RHEL 6.x operating system. Typically, you do not have
to activate these features; they are already enabled by default.
Several innovative features provide advanced power saving and budgeting features on HP ProLiant servers. These
features include the HP Power Regulator, HP Power Capping, HP Dynamic Power Capping, and Collaborative Power
Control.
