Monitoring and Managing Power
You can use iDRAC7 to monitor and manage the power requirements of the managed system. This helps to protect the
system from power outages by appropriately distributing and regulating the power consumption on the system.
The key features are:
• Power Monitoring — View the power status, history of power measurements, the current averages, peaks, and so
on for the managed system.
• Power Capping — View and set the power cap for the managed system, including displaying the minimum and
maximum potential power consumption. This is a licensed feature.
• Power Control — Enables you to remotely perform power control operations (such as, power on, power off, system
reset, power cycle, and graceful shutdown) on the managed system.
• Power Supply Options — Configure the power supply options such as redundancy policy, hot spare, and power
factor correction.
