Emergency Power Reduction
Overview
In the event of an emergency, such as a Data Center-level power failure forcing the Data
Center to run on a backup power supply, you can enable Emergency Power Reduction
to throttle the power of the devices down to an extremely low level to prolong the service
time.
You can also specify an emergency power reduction (EPR) action for each directly
monitored server or device. So when a room is in emergency power reduction, different
devices can be in different states.
There are three actions you can choose for each device. From the Devices and Racks
page, select add or edit a device.
