  • Page 36: Example Configurations

    Hewlett Packard Enterprise Power Advisor website (http://www.hpe.com/info/hpepoweradvisor). Example configurations Configuration examples can be calculated using the HPE Power Advisor Tool (http://www.hpe.com/info/poweradvisor/online). This tool is designed for facilities planning purposes only. Values obtained from the tool are based on worst case loads. Whenever possible, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends using actual measurements in configuration planning.
  • Page 37 IMPORTANT: If you have an HPE APM connected to an Apollo d6500 Chassis, do not connect the iLO port of the HPE APM and the iLO port of the enclosure to the network at the same time. Having both ports connected at the same time results in a loopback condition.

  • Page 39: Configuring The System

    Configuring the system Power capping The HPE ProLiant XL family of products provides a power capping feature that operates at the server enclosure level. The capping feature can be activated with PPIC.EXE, a stand-alone utility that runs in the environment of one of the resident servers in the chassis to be power capped. After a power cap is set for the enclosure, all the resident servers in the enclosure will have the same uniform power cap applied to them until the cap is either modified or canceled.

  • Page 40: Configuring A Power Cap

    HPE Apollo Platform Manager APM is a rack level device that can control power caps for all enclosures in the rack. For more information, see the HPE Apollo Platform Manager User Guide on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/support/APM_UG_en). Setting the chassis power cap mode with the PPIC utility Download and install the ProLiant Power Interface Control Utility from the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website (http://www.hpe.com/info/hpesc).
  • Page 41 If NONE is specified instead of a cap wattage value, then APM removes all (or the specified zone) of the power caps. To remove baseline data from the EEPROM and to remove the power cap setting, enter the following command: >SET POWER BASELINE NONE After this command is issued, the only way to re-establish a power baseline is to issue the SET POWER BASELINE command.
