Scheduled Power Consumption Configuration
The Scheduled Power Consumption Configuration group allows you to specify in
detail the schedules and modes (operating-system-controlled, best
performance, lowest power consumption) that the iRMC S2/S3 uses to control
power consumption on the managed server.
IThe Scheduled Power Consumption Configuration group only appears if you
have enabled the power control mode scheduled in the Power Consumption
Options group.
IConfiguration for scheduled power control mode assumes that the
Enhanced Speed Step option has been enabled in the BIOS setup. If this is
not the case, a message to this effect is displayed.
If this message appears even though “Enhanced Speed Step” is
enabled, this may be because:
The CPU (e.g. low-power CPU) of the server does not support
scheduled power control.
The system is currently in the BIOS POST phase.
