Power management configuration

Overview

The NFM-P supports configuring power management zones on NEs with power supplies that support configuration, and power priority values on MDA cards installed on those nodes. Each MDA and APEQ provisioned on a node is associated with a power management zone. During startup, MDAs with higher power priority values are started first. You can view information and collect statistics about power availability and shedding using the NFM-P.

See To configure a power management zone for information about configuring a power management zone. See To configure an MDA for information about configuring power priority values on an MDA. See the NSP NFM-P Statistics Management Guide for information about gathering power statistics using the NFM-P.

Detailed information about power usage is available on the power management zone, shelf, card slot, and daughter card slot configuration forms. Use the Hardware Environment tab to view information about power usage.
