CMC Features
The CMC provides the following multiple systems management functions:
• Enclosure-level real-time automatic power and thermal management:
– Monitors system power requirements and supports the optional Dynamic Power Supply Engagement
(DPSE) mode. The DPSE mode improves power efficiency by allowing the CMC to dynamically place
power supplies in standby mode, depending on the load and redundancy requirements.
– Reports real-time power consumption, which includes logging high and low points with a time stamp.
