Copying Throttling Configuration Policy to a File
You can copy an existing throttling configuration to a new file. You can modify the parameters
in the new file to create a new throttling configuration policy file. You can use this policy file to
create and modify a throttling configuration.
NOTE: In the EMS hardware monitoring mode, only the default throttling configuration is
effective.
