For example, the following command sets the maximum power budget to 4800 Watt:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisPowerCap 4800
To enable or disable dynamic PSU engagement, type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisDynamicPSUEngagementEnable <value>
where <value> is 0 (disable), 1 (enable). The default is 0.
For example, the following command disables dynamic PSU engagement:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisDynamicPSUEngagementEnable 0
To enable the maximum power consumption mode, type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisMaxPowerConservationMode 1
To restore normal operation, type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisMaxPowerConservationMode 0
To enable the power remote logging feature, enter the following command:
racadm config -g cfgRemoteHosts -o
cfgRhostsSyslogPowerLoggingEnabled 1
To specify the desired logging interval, enter the following command:
racadm config -g cfgRemoteHosts -o
cfgRhostsSyslogPowerLoggingInterval n
where n is 1-1440 minutes.
To determine if the power remote logging feature is enabled, enter the following command:
racadm getconfig -g cfgRemoteHosts -o
cfgRhostsSyslogPowerLoggingEnabled
To determine the power remote logging interval, enter the following command:
racadm getconfig -g cfgRemoteHosts -o
cfgRhostsSyslogPowerLoggingInterval
The power remote logging feature is dependent on previously configured remote syslog hosts having been . Logging to one
or more remote syslog hosts must be enabled, otherwise power consumption is logged. This can be done either through the
web GUI or the RACADM CLI. For more information, see the remote syslog configuration instructions.
To enable remote power management by Open Manage Power Center (OPMC), type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisServerBasedPowerMgmtMode 1
To restore CMC power management, type:
racadm config -g cfgChassisPower -o
cfgChassisServerBasedPowerMgmtMode 0
For information about RACADM commands for chassis power, see the config, getconfig, getpbinfo, and cfgChassisPower
sections in the Chassis Management Controller for PowerEdge VRTX RACADM Command Line Reference Guide.

Executing Power Control Operations

You can execute the following power control operation for the chassis, servers, and IOM.
NOTE: Power control operations affect the entire chassis.

Executing Power Control Operations on the Chassis

CMC enables you to remotely perform several power management actions, such as an orderly shutdown on the entire chassis
(chassis, servers, IOM, and PSUs).
NOTE: To perform power management actions, you must have the Chassis Configuration Administrator privilege.
