SNMP traps denoted by an asterisk (*) are not supported on the HP ProLiant s6500 Chassis. The SET POWER

ON ALL and SET POWER OFF ALL commands are not supported on SL-APM 1.54 on the HP Moonshot 1500

Chassis.
To power on the PDU ports, enter:
SET POWER ON PDM
To power off PDU ports, enter:
SET POWER OFF PDM

Polling servers for power values

To enable a background process that polls each server for its average, minimum, and maximum power
values, enter ENABLE POLLPOWER.
Polling these values increases the performance of SNMP queries of these power values.
The poll cycle time varies depending on how many server chassis are plugged into the SL-APM system. The
more chassis that are present, the less frequently each server will be polled.
If POLLPOWER is enabled, then an SNMP request for any of these values on any resident server returns the

last polled value instead of requesting the real time values from the server at the time the request is made.

Disabling the polling of servers for power values

To disable the background process that is polling each server for power usage, enter DISABLE

POLLPOWER. The DISABLE POLLPOWER setting is the default.
