Present Power Cap displays the current power cap setting.

The 24-Hour History section displays the following:

Average Power Reading displays the average of the power readings from the server over the last 24-
hour period. If the server has not been running for 24 hours, the value is the average of all the

readings since the server was booted.

Maximum Power displays the maximum power reading from the server over the last 24-hour period.

If the server has not been running for 24 hours, the value is the maximum of all the readings since
the server was booted.

Minimum Power displays the minimum power reading from the server over the last 24-hour period. If
the server has not been running for 24 hours, the value is the minimum of all the readings since the

server was booted.

Show value in BTUs changes the displayed data from watts to BTUs.

Processor states

The Power Regulator for ProLiant Data page enables you to view processor states (p-state) and a running
average of the percentage of time each logical processor has spent in each p-state over the previous 24-

hours. Click Refresh to update the p-state data graph.
You must have the Configure iLO 2 Settings privilege to view the Power Regulator for ProLiant Data page.

Power Regulator for ProLiant Data is a licensed feature available with the purchase of optional licenses.
For more information, see "Licensing (on page

25

)".

To access the Power Regulator for ProLiant Data page, click Power Management>Processor States.

The Power Regulator Data page displays the collected p-state data, starting from host power up once a

second and then refreshes for display once every 5 minutes. The system ROM reads the current status of
each logical processor. The status register in Intel®-based platforms reflects the current operating

frequency and voltage. Because of multiple processor dependencies, the status might or might not reflect

an absolute p-state. The frequency might be at one p-state and the voltage at a higher p-state. The system

ROM updates the p-state count of the p-state for the current frequency and not the current voltage.
Data is displayed using a bar graph, with the total bar length representing 100% of the time covered by

the data. One data graph is displayed for each processor or core. Data graphs for multiple threads on a

processor or core that supports Hyper-Threading are not displayed. A portion of the bar is colored
