•
Warning Threshold
: Displays the acceptable power consumption (in 
Watts and BTU/hr) recommended for system operation. Power 
consumption that exceeds this value results in warning events.
•
Failure Threshold
: Displays the highest acceptable power consumption 
(in Watts and BTU/hr) required for system operation. Power consumption 
that exceeds this value results in critical/failure events.

: Displays the name of the power supply unit: PS-n, where n is the 
power supply number
•
Reading
: The current power consumption in Amps
Power Tracking Statistics
•
Energy Consumption 
displays the current cumulative energy 
consumption for the server measured from the input side of the power 
supplies. The value is displayed in KWh and it is a cumulative value, which 
is the total energy used by the system. You can reset this value with the 
Reset
 button.
•
System Peak Power
 specifies the maximum 1-minute average of power for 
the system since Measurement Start Time. You can reset this value with 
the 
Reset 
button.
•
System Peak Amperage
 specifies the peak current value within the interval 
specified by the Start and Peak times. You can reset this value with the 
Reset 
button.
•
Measurement Start Time
 displays the date and time recorded when the 
statistic was last cleared and the new measurement cycle began. For 
Energy Consumption
, you can reset this value with the 
Reset
 button, but 
it will persist through a system reset or failover operation. For
System Peak 
Power
 and 
System Peak Amperage
, you can reset this value with the 
Reset
button, but it will also persist through a system reset or failover operation.
