Power Control Feature
For a device that has a Xeon Processor, power consumption of the server can be controlled through the
command line interface of EXPRESSSCOPE Engine 3 (BMC) or by using NEC ESMPRO Manager. This
feature curves the upper limit of the power consumption, which allows more servers to be installed in the
environment where the power consumption is limited.
For settings information, see "
EXPRESSSCOPE Engine3 User’s Guide
