The detailed power status information for each monitored
BladeCenter component is displayed in the Power Domain details section
of the Monitors → Fuel Gauge page.
The BladeCenter components that
are part of each power domain are grouped by type. The status information
for power domain 1 is shown. There is a separate status section for each power
domain in your BladeCenter unit.
The following information is displayed
for each component that is installed in a power domain:
-
Bay: This field displays the bays, if applicable, that a BladeCenter
component occupies. It also indicates whether a blade server can reduce its
power consumption (throttle) if power redundancy is lost.
-
Status: This field displays an icon that indicates power-management
events that are outstanding for the component. The icon indicates that a blade server will not be able to turn on because
there is not enough remaining power in the power domain to support it. The icon indicates that a blade server is currently reducing
its power consumption (power throttling) to maintain redundant power in a
power domain.
-
Module: This field displays the component description.
-
State: This field displays the power state of the module (On or
Standby).
-
Currently Allocated Power: This field displays the amount of power,
in watts, that is allocated to the module.
-
Maximum Allocated Power: This field displays the maximum amount
of power, in watts, that a component requires.
-
Minimum Allocated Power: This field displays the minimum amount
of power, in watts, that a blade server requires when it is operating at its
minimum power level (fully throttled).
-
CPU Duty Cycles: This field applies only to blade servers. It displays
the duty cycle of each microprocessor in a blade server, as a percentage of
full operation. The duty cycles of the microprocessors are separated by commas.
For each blade server that does not report its duty cycles, n/a is
displayed. A duty cycle is a ratio of actual processing time expressed as
a percentage of total available processor time.
-
DOMAIN TOTALS: These fields list the total power that is allocated
for all components in the power domain.
