Specification Maximum peak power Value 1375W @ 200-240 VAC 960 W @ 100 VAC 1080 W @ 110-120 VAC 1440 W @ 200-240 VAC *To ensure the server has sufficient power during normal operation, a server configured with eight populated CPU sockets or a detected high power GPU requires high line (200 - 240 V) ac server configuration. As a precaution, if these configurations are detected on a low line (100 - 127 V) ac configured server the server will halt at Power-On Self-Test with a "Low line (100-120 VAC) power delivery is not sufficient for this configuration. High line (200-240 VAC) delivery is required to operate the system in its current configuration" message and only boot to RBSU. At POST, the server automatically detects whether the power supplies are connected to high-line power or low-line power. If the server is configured with eight populated CPU sockets or a detected high power GPU, the system will halt if it detects that the server is plugged into low-line power. This occurs by design because systems configured eight processors, and/ or high power graphics cards, with a large amount of memory, hard drives, or other options might require more power than can be provided by low-line power. POST halts this low-line configuration as a precaution against the server having insufficient power during operation. If a you wish to operate a server in this configuration when utilizing low-line power, the power supply solution should be verified as sufficient using the HP Power Advisor (http://www.hp.com/go/hppoweradvisor). If the power solution is not deemed sufficient, the server may not have sufficient power to operate normally. If the solution is deemed sufficient, a ROM-Based Setup Utility option, outlined below, can be used to allow the system to operate in this configuration. If the HP Power Advisor has determined that the server can be reliably powered at low-line power in this configuration, perform the following steps to override the Power Supply Requirements setting in ROMBased Setup Utility (RBSU): 1. When the server halts, access RBSU. 2. Select "Advanced Options". 3. Scroll down to "Power Requirements Override" and choose to enable it. 4. Exit RBSU,which will reboot the server and should bypass the message on the subsequent boot. Specifications 107
