Setting Minimum Processor Idle Power Package State

NOTE:

This option is available on servers with Intel processors.

Configure the lowest processor idle power state (C-state). The processor automatically transitions
into package C-states based on the Core C-states in which cores on the processor have transitioned.
The higher the package C-state, the lower the power usage of that idle package state. Package
C6 (non-retention) is the lowest power idle package state supported by the processor. Configure
this option only when HP Power Profile is set to Custom.

To set minimum processor idle power package state:
1.

From the System Utilities screen, select System Configuration

→BIOS/Platform Configuration

(RBSU)

→Power Management→Advanced Power Options→Minimum Processor Idle Power

Package State and press Enter.

2.

Select one of the following options:

Package C6 (retention) State

Package C6 (non-retention) State

No Package State

3.

Press F10 to save your selection.
