Description

Enclosure Ambient Temperature

This field displays the highest ambient temperature being reported by the installed blade devices. If no blade devices are installed, then this field displays the temperature of the Onboard Administrator module as an approximation of the ambient temperature.

Thermal Subsystem Status

The overall thermal status of the enclosure. Possible values are Unknown, OK, Degraded, or Critical Error.

Power Subsystem Status

The overall power status of the enclosure. Possible values are Unknown, OK, Degraded, or Critical Error.

Power Mode

A user setting to configure the enclosure DC power capacity and the input power redundancy mode of the enclosure. See Power Management for possible values.

Present Power

The amount of watts being consumed by all devices in the enclosure.

Power Limit

The maximum amount of power available for consumption by the enclosure measured in watts.

Enclosure Dynamic Power Cap

A power cap on a group of servers in the enclosure. As the servers run, the demand for power varies for each server. A power cap for each server is set to provide the server with enough power to meet its workload demands while still conforming to the Enclosure Dynamic Power Cap. Continuous monitoring of power demands and automatic adjustments to server power caps ensure there is minimal performance degradation. Information for the Enclosure Dynamic Power Cap appears only if a cap has been defined.

Present Power/Enclosure Dynamic Power Cap/Power Limit

The Present Power is the number of watts being consumed by all the devices in the enclosure. The Enclosure Dynamic Power Cap automatically adjusts power caps on servers in the enclosure to meet workload demands on the servers while still conforming to the Enclosure Dynamic Power Cap. The Power Limit is the maximum amount of input power available for consumption by the enclosure. The Power Limit is dependent on the enclosure power redundancy setting and the number and location of the power supplies in the enclosure. If a Static Power Limit has been specified, the Power Limit displays that limit.
