Power Management

Enabled

Enables 0 Watt mode.

Even if Enabled has been configured, the 0 Watt mode is blocked in the following cases:

Power-cycle request / power-on delay

A power cycle request powers down the server without enabling

0 Watt mode, i.e. 0 Watt mode will not be enabled in the delay between powering down and powering up during a power cycle:

Any power-on request occurring within the delay causes the server to be powered on after the delay is over.

If no power-on request occurred during the delay, the iRMC S3 enables the 0 Watt mode after the delay time period has passed.

Thermal power-on prohibition

If the Temperature Monitoring mode (system thermal power on prohibition) has been configured in the BIOS/UEFI setup menu, 0 Watt mode will not be enabled.

ASR&R

Any ASR&R action currently reducing the retry counter prevents

0 Watt mode from being enabled. This applies even if the server was finally powered off after the retry counter reached 0.

Scheduled Power On/Off Time (see "Power On/Off Time - Specify power on/off times for the server" on page 193)

As long as a Power On/Off timer configured in the iRMC S3 Power Options page is active, 0 Watt mode cannot be enabled.

0 Watt mode also cannot be enabled if the Power On/Off timer gets deactivated while the server is powered off. In this case, only next power-off transition will enable 0 Watt mode. No scheduled Power On/Off timer will then prevent 0 Watt mode from being enabled.

Global Error LED

If the global Error LED indicates any problematic system health conditions, the iRMC S3 will not enable 0 Watt mode. This is because the server must be able to report system health problems even if powered off.
