Installation Manual

Status
The overall communication-link status and rack input power redundancy, as determined by the
iPDU. Possible values follow:
• iPDU Redundant—This Good status indicates that the server is connected to at least two
different iPDUs.
• iPDU Not Redundant—This Caution status indicates that the server is not connected to
at least two different iPDUs. This status is displayed when one of the following conditions
occurs:
◦ An iPDU link is not established for all power supplies.
◦ Two or more power supplies are connected to the same iPDU.
The iPDU MAC address and serial number are identical for power supplies whose input
power comes from the same iPDU. If one power supply is waiting for a connection to
be established, the iPDU is listed as Not Redundant.
• Waiting for connection—This Informational status indicates one or more of the following
conditions:
◦ The wrong power cord was used to connect the power supply to the iPDU.
◦ The iPDU and the iLO processor are in the process of connecting. This process can
take up to 2 minutes after the iLO processor or the iPDU is reset.
◦ The iPDU module does not have a network (or IP) address.
Part Number
The iPDU part number.
Serial
The iPDU serial number.
MAC Address
The MAC address of the iPDU network port. This value helps you to identify each connected
iPDU because each iPDU has a unique MAC address.
iPDU Link
The iPDU HTTP address (if available). To open the Intelligent Modular PDU web interface, click

Power Readings
Present Power Reading—The most recent power reading from the server.
Although this value is typically equal to the sum of all active power supply outputs, there might
be some small variance as a result of reading the individual power supplies. This value is a
guideline value and is not as accurate as the values presented on the Power Management
pages. For more information, see “Viewing server power usage” (page 249).
Power Microcontroller
Firmware Version—The firmware version of the power microcontroller.
