Power Control Feature

For a device that has a Xeon Processor, power consumption of the server can be controlled through the server
function of EXPRESSSCOPE Engine 3 (BMC) or by using NEC ESMPRO Manager. This feature curves the
upper limit of the power consumption, which allows more servers to be installed in the environment where the
power consumption is limited.
For settings information, refer to "EXPRESSSCOPE Engine3 User's Guide" or NEC ESMPRO Manager online
help.
