Installing and Setting Up the CMC 45
Configuring Power Budgeting
The CMC offers a power budgeting service that allows you to configure
power budget, redundancy, and dynamic power for the chassis.
The chassis ships with either three or six power supply units (PSUs). If your
chassis has only three PSUs, you can add up to three more. The power
management service enables optimization of power consumption and re-
allocation of power to different modules based on demand.
For more information about CMC power management, see "Power
Management" on page 219.
For instructions on configuring power budgeting and other power settings
using the Web interface, see "Configuring Power Budgeting" on page 146.

NOTE: Changing your CMC network settings may disconnect your current network
connection.
You can configure the CMC network settings using one of the following tools:
• RACADM — see "Configuring Multiple CMCs in Multiple Chassis " on
page 78
NOTE: If you are deploying the CMC in a Linux environment, see "Installing
RACADM on a Linux Management Station" on page 28.
• Web interface — see "Configuring CMC Network Properties " on
