CHAPTER 4 Functions provided by the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series

4.6 Clock feature

- Operating-PSU optimization
It controls the number of active PSUs depending on the quantity of powered on hardware resources.
- Operating-DDC optimization
It controls the number of active DDCs depending on the number of CPUs mounted in the SB.

4.5.4 Scheduled Operations

The PRIMEQUEST 2000 series can schedule the power-on/off time of each partition from the MMB, and can
also control automatic operations according to the schedule.
The scheduled operations and the power restoration function are linked when power restoration mode is set
to 'Schedule Sync.'.
For details, see '6.6 Schedule operation' of the PRIMEQUEST 2000 Series Installation Manual (C122-E174)

4.5.5 Remote Power Supply Operations

The PRIMEQUEST 2000 series can control the power supply through connections to partitions from a
remote terminal using the MMB Web-UI.
Both IOU_1GbE and IOU_10GbE support WOL.
Remarks
The support for WOL depends on the OS. Refer to each OS manual for details.

4.5.6 UPS

Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) is an external battery unit. With a UPS connected, the device can be
prepared for a power failure or sudden power supply fluctuation.
The UPS of the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series is a SMART UPS. Shut down is instructed from PowerChute by
the LAN connection.

4.6.1 MMB, BIOS and BMC Time Management

This section describes the MMB, BIOS/OS and BMC time management of the PRIMEQUEST 2000 series;
this is separately done as shown below.
MMB
The MMB has an RTC and manages the time of the day independently. The RTC can be set by a user.
Notes
The MMB time and the partition time are managed separately by independent clocks.
The MMB clock does not report or adjust the time of the partition clock. Keep the MMB time and the partition
time the same, or at least close, as they are needed for the following cases.
- When checking the MMB log against the OS log in a partition when there is a the hardware failure
- When conducting a system audit or security audit
- When an error occurs in time maintenance battery in a partition
Use either of the following ways to adjust the times.
- Adjusting the time manually from the MMB Web-UI
- Adjusting the time using NTP client function of the MMB
OS
The OS reads the RTC (PCH-RTC) which is built-in the PCH when booting, and
by itself, using the timer while running.
referred to as SB battery).
BIOS
The PCH-RTC is driven by a battery on the SB (hereafter
