Dell Chassis Management Controller Version 2.10 for PowerEdge FX2 and FX2s User's Guide

Chassis power limit monitoring

OpenManage Power Center (OMPC) can be used to monitor and control power consumption of the machines in a data center. PowerEdge FX2/FX2s enables OMPC by providing a provision to set the power cap for the chassis, and bounds to guide the setting of the power cap. The lower and upper bounds for the power cap are set by the CMC and cannot be configured.

  • NOTE: The lower bound is the minimum power needed to operate the chassis given the current configuration. The upper bound reflects the maximum power available in the current redundancy policy.
  • NOTE: If the Maximum Power Conversation Mode (MPCM) is enabled on the chassis, all power requests from a blade server are denied. The blade server is not powered on if there is any action in the iDRAC or blade server requiring the host to start the power cycle.
