None
No power consumption control.
Minimum
Sets power consumption to the lowest possible value. Default setting.
Low Noise
The management blade controls the power consumption of the server blades to ensure that the
system unit fans make not more noise than 45 dB. If necessary, the server blades are forced to work
with lowest performance.
Enforced
If a power consumption limit is to be set in the Enforced Mode box below (third box, Maximum Input
Power Limit field), Enforced must be set for the consumption mode. With this mode, the system unit
power consumption is controlled to ensure that it does not exceed the Maximum Input Power Limit
value. If necessary, the server blades are forced to work with lowest performance.
Limitation
If a power consumption limit is to be set in the Consumption Limitation box below (7th box, Limit
Threshold field), the consumption mode must be set to Limitation. With this mode, the management
blade monitors the system unit power consumption and provides information about it when it has
reached a certain value. If Enable Dynamic Power Control is enabled, the management blade will try to
keep the system unit power consumption within configured values.
Scheduled
This setting allows to define a Scheduled Consumption Configuration for the system unit for each day of
the week (last box on the page).
Enable Adaptive Budgeting
Enables/disables the distribution of the available power to the sever blades according to two selectable
policies (Adaptive Budgeting box on the page, 5th box).
