Power Consumption
Status |
Indicates
the status of the power consumption reading based on the warning and failure
thresholds. Can be any of the following:
-
- OK is symbolized by a green check mark and
indicates that the reading is below the warning threshold.
-
- Warning is
symbolized by a yellow triangle containing an exclamation point and
indicates that the reading has crossed the warning threshold but is
below the failure threshold.
-
- Critical
is symbolized by a red cross mark and indicates that the reading has
crossed the failure threshold.

Probe Name |
Probe
name for the power consumed by the system. Click the probe name to set the
threshold values. For information on setting the threshold values, see "Edit
Power Consumption Probes."
NOTE: You can set the threshold values only on
non-modular systems. |
Reading |
Value (in
watt and BTU/hr) of the total power consumed by the number of power supplies (AC)
present in the system. |
Warning Threshold |
Displays
the acceptable power consumption (in watt and BTU/hr) recommended for system
operation. Power consumption that exceeds this value results in warning
events. |
Failure Threshold |
Displays
the highest acceptable power consumption (in watt and BTU/hr) required for system
operation. Power consumption that exceeds this value results in
critical/failure events. |

Power Headroom
The Power Headroom section displays the system instantaneous and peak
headroom values in BTU/hr and watt.
System
Instantaneous Headroom |
Displays System
Instantaneous Headroom in watt and BTU/hr. This is the theoretical maximum
power drawn by the power supply minus instantaneous power draw.
|
System Peak
Headroom |
Displays
System
Peak Headroom in watt and BTU/hr. This is the theoretical maximum power
drawn by the power supply minus peak power draw. |
Amperage
The Amperage section displays the instantaneous power consumption in amperage
for the power supply sensors present on the system.
 |
NOTE:
This section is present only on non-modular
systems. |
Location |
Power supply sensor
present on the system. |
Reading |
Power consumption in amperage for the corresponding power supply sensor. |
For information on how to set alert actions for power monitoring, see "Set Alert Actions."
