HP Power Regulator
This feature configures the Power Regulator for ProLiant support.
Options include:
• HP Dynamic Power Savings Mode (default)—Automatically varies processor speed and power
usage based on processor use, reduces overall power consumption with little or no impact to
performance, and does not require OS support.
• HP Static Low Power Mode—Reduces processor speed and power usage, guarantees a lower
maximum power usage for the system, and provides a high impact on performance in
environments with higher processor utilization.
• HP Static High Performance Mode—Processors run in the maximum power and performance
state, regardless of the OS power management policy.
• OS Control Mode—Processors run in the maximum power and performance state, unless the
OS enables a power management policy.
NOTE: Certain processors support only one power state and operate at their initialized frequency,
regardless of the Power Regulator setting.
