Power capping using HPE Apollo Platform Manager
A global power cap can be applied to all enclosures with one HPE Apollo Platform Manager command. Different caps can be
applied to user-defined groups using flexible zones within the same rack.
All supported enclosures and servers that are connected to the APM can participate in power capping and monitoring.
Separate power cap settings can be made for as many or as few of the enclosures as needed, but the power baseline process
operates as a global process that interacts with every supported enclosure that is connected to the APM. For more information
on cabling between the enclosure and APM, see the cabling section.
NOTE: Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends configuring the APM such that it controls only one rack.
Power capping is configured using the APM GUI and the Redfish-conformant APM RESTful API. For information on enabling
and using the APM GUI or RESTful API, see the HPE Apollo Platform Manager User Guide (https://www.hpe.com/support/
APM_UG_en).
Power capping using the HPE iLO web interface
The Power Regulation page of the HPE iLO web interface allows you to configure power regulation settings for an HPE
Apollo chassis and the servers it contains.
Power capping with HPE Performance Cluster Manager
The HPE Performance Cluster Manager provides the capabilities for system-level and job-level management. The cluster
manager runs a service on the admin node to interact with the various power control points. The power management software
performs the following functions:
•
Measures, aggregates, and reports power statistics
•
Sets power limits on HPE clusters
A power distribution unit (PDU) reads AC power and energy measurements on cluster rack-level power domains. For the AC
power measurement feature to function, the cluster must have one or more of the following PDUs:
•
Server Technology Sentry3
•
Server Technology Sentry4
•
880459-B21 (Raritan) HPE Mtrd 3P 39.9kVA 60A 48A/277V FIO PDU
•
P9R82A HPE G2 Mtrd 3P 17.3kVA/18 C13 N/J PDU
The cluster manager power management capability requires all HPE ProLiant and HPE Apollo systems to be Gen10 systems.
Remove the server blank
CAUTION: To prevent improper cooling and thermal damage, do not operate the system unless all bays are populated
with either a component or a blank.
Procedure
1. Press and hold the server blank latch.
2. Slide the server blank out of the bay.
