15. Advanced Configuration 15.9 Power Strip Control The console server supports a growing list of remote power-control devices (RPCs), which can be configured using the management console as described in 8. Power, Environment and Digital I/O. These RPCs are controlled using the open source PowerMan and Network UPS Tools, and with Tripp Lite's pmpower utility. 15.9.1 PowerMan Tool PowerMan provides power management in a data center or compute cluster environment. It performs operations such as power on, power off and power cycle via remote power controller (RPC) devices.

15. Advanced Configuration
15.9 Power Strip Control
The console server supports a growing list of remote power-control devices (RPCs), which can be configured using the
management console as described in 8. Power, Environment and Digital I/O. These RPCs are controlled using the open source
PowerMan and Network UPS Tools, and with Tripp Lite’s pmpower utility.
15.9.1 PowerMan Tool
PowerMan provides power management in a data center or compute cluster environment. It performs operations such as
power on, power off and power cycle via remote power controller (RPC) devices.
Synopsis
powerman
[-option] [targets]
pm
[-option] [targets]
Options
-1,
--on
Power ON targets.
-0,
--off
Power OFF targets.
-c,
--cycle
Power cycle targets.
-r,
--reset
Assert hardware reset for targets (if implemented by RPC).
-f,
--flash
Turn beacon ON for targets (if implemented by RPC).
-u,
--unflash
Turn beacon OFF for targets (if implemented by RPC).
-l,
--list
List available targets. If possible, output will be compressed into a host range (see TARGET
SPECIFICATION below).
-q,
--query
Query plug status of targets. If none specified, query all targets. Status is not cached; each
time this option is used, PowerMan queries the appropriate RPCs. Targets connected to RPCs
that could not be contacted (e.g., due to network failure) are reported as status “unknown”. If
possible, output will be compressed into host ranges.
-n,
--node
Query node power status of targets (if implemented by RPC). If no targets are specified, query
all targets. In this context, a node in the OFF state could be ON at the plug, but operating in
standby power mode.
-b,
--beacon
Query beacon status (if implemented by RPC). If no targets are specified, query all targets.
-t,
--temp
Query node temperature (if implemented by RPC). If no targets are specified, query all targets.
Temperature information is not interpreted by PowerMan and is reported as received from the
RPC on one line per target, prefixed by target name.
-h,
--help
Display option summary.
-L,
--license
Show PowerMan license information.
-d,
--destination host[:port] Connect to a PowerMan daemon on non-default host and optional port.
-V,
--version
Display the PowerMan version number and exit.
-D,
--device
Displays RPC status information. If targets are specified, only RPCs matching the target list are
displayed.
-T,
--telemetry
Causes RPC telemetry information to be displayed as commands are processed. Useful for
debugging device scripts.
-x,
--exprange
Expand host ranges in query responses.
