Power Throttling Function

Note:
Power throttling function is supported only in redundant PSU
systems. The function cannot be activated if only one PSU is
installed.
If a PSU in a redundant PSU system fails (i.e power cable is
not plugged in properly), to reduce fan speed, power throttling
function starts to lower temporarily CPU and DIMM throughput.
When the PSU failure is fixed, and power throttling is enabled,
the system detects the fixed PSU and automatically disables
power throttling.
Example scenario:
Prerequisite:
Power throttling is enabled in the system.
1. Power cable is not plugged in properly to one of the
redundant PSUs.
2. The power throttling function activates and starts to
reduce the CPU and DIMM throughput.
The cable issue with the PSU is fixed.
3. The system detects the healthy PSU and disables the
power throttling funciton.
The power throttling function example scenario is complete.
