Summary - HP AB500A - Integrated Lights-Out Advanced Technology Brief

Summary

HP Power Regulator allows IT administrators to directly reduce the frequency and core voltage of the
processors. This, in turn, can significantly reduce costs for power and cooling. Administrators can
monitor power consumption, keeping track of its use in relation to data center limitations. This
capability allows policy management and permits chargeback to business units.
HP Power Regulator for ProLiant is an important technology for any data center facing power and
cooling challenges. Flexible power saving modes and OS-independent ROM operation give Power
Regulator a broader solution set than OS-based power management. Compatibility with other HP
management products such as HP Integrated Lights-Out (iLO), Integrated Lights-Out 2 (iLO 2) and
Insight Power Manager (IPM) makes the HP Power Regulator an integral part of a complete enterprise
management solution.
