Compaq Tips and Tricks for NetWare 5
Archiving the IML to a data file for input to a text editor or spreadsheet application or other
IML Viewer utility
Clearing the IML
Refreshing (manually re-reading and displaying entire IML)
Customizing the Integrated Management Display (IMD)
The IML Viewer supports the viewing and management of data displayed on the Compaq
IMD, an integrated LCD panel installed on many of the latest Compaq servers. And the best
part? You can customize the IMD to suit your needs and preferences.
IMPORTANT TIP: CPQIML.NLM requires CPQHLTH.NLM v4.04 or later for complete
functionality. Although CPQIML.NLM v1.00 is compatible with earlier versions of
CPQHLTH.NLM, some CPQIML.NLM capabilities might not be available.
CPQIML.NLM provides a rich set of online user messages describing all error conditions and
suggested actions that you could encounter during execution of the utility. It also provides
context-sensitive help panels through the F1 function key for all CPQIML.NLM features.
Compaq Power Subsystem Utility (CPQPOWER.NLM)
The Compaq Power Subsystem Utility (CPQPOWER.NLM) is another Compaq server utility
designed to provide online readings of all sensors within your server power supply, as monitored
by CPQHLTH.NLM.
IMPORTANT TIP: CPQHLTH.NLM must be running and CPQPOWER.NLM must be able to
communicate with it successfully in order to get the power supply data.
In addition, the utility incorporates the Compaq Power Down Manager that allows you to
configure the intelligent power switch on ProLiant servers. To enable this feature, just add the
SoftPwr parameter to the load CPQHLTH.NLM command.
CPQHLTH -SoftPwr
Simple enough? Good. After installation, CPQPOWER.NLM will display the following
information:
Power utilization and consumption: capacity, current usage, available, voltage, and
temperature fan speed
Configuration of intelligent power switch (Compaq Power Down Manager)
Servers with this feature can (1) do nothing when the power switch is turned off (Power
Down Lock), (2) power down as soon as the power switch is turned off, or (3) gracefully
down when the power switch is pressed and before power is shut off to the server, thus,
preventing accidental data corruption or loss. This feature is supported on all Compaq
ProLiant servers.
Redundant or non-redundant status of power supply
System heat output status
