Table 1. HP ProLiant G6 chassis power control logic modes Mode Function 0 No redundancy. Power control disabled. No power throttling will occur. 1 AC redundancy with throttling. This is the default mode. It provides maximum performance with power supply redundancy. Power control logic will throttle the performance of each server tray if the chassis has only one operational power supply. In this mode, the servers are expected to survive an unexpected AC power loss to one of the power supplies. 2 Full AC/DC redundancy. Power control logic will maintain a power cap value at the DC rating of a single power supply (460W, 750W, or 1200W), such that if one power supply experiences a DC or AC failure, the chassis should remain online and operational. You should be aware of the chassis' minimum power consumption. It must be less than the rating of a single power supply. Running the PPIC utility with the -c option will provide this information. 3 User configurable (with purchase of LO100i Advanced Pack on the server trays). You specify the total power required to operate the 4U chassis within the capabilities of the hardware installed. Before you set this mode, we strongly advise that you run the PPIC utility with the -c option to calibrate the minimum and maximum power consumption for the chassis. For accuracy, run the -c command after installing and configuring all hardware and bringing all nodes online in the 4U chassis. To avoid reduced performance due to throttling, do not set a user-configurable power cap value below or within 20 percent of the minimum power value provided by the -c option. Remote management and control ProLiant SL6500 server trays with LO100i or iLO 3 support IPMI 2.0 and DCMI 1.0 standards so that you can manage heterogeneous servers with either industry standard. You can mix trays with LO-100 and iLO 3 management processors. The following are basic requirements for compliance: • Implementation of all mandatory IPMI 2.0 and DCMI 1.0 in-band and out-of-band commands • Reliable local and remote power on/off/reset through IPMI chassis commands • Serial over LAN console redirection from a remote server (IPMI 2.0) • Server identification by device ID, globally unique identifier (GUID), asset tag, and chassis ID • Accurate system event logging using IPMI • Reliable in-band keyboard controller style (KCS) interface and out-of-band LAN interface HP Lights Out 100i ProLiant SL170s G6 server trays include LO100i, which provides core embedded management functions. LO100i supports the standard full-speed shared Ethernet port and an optional dedicated Ethernet port. In the first case, LO100i and the server share the standard Ethernet port, using the production network for both. Since the connection is full speed, it supports Graphic Remote Console and virtual media. An optional mezzanine card provides a dedicated Ethernet port for connecting to a separate management network. For more information on HP LO100i remote management, go to www.hp.com/go/LO100. 11
