Tips about the power plan deployment function

• The following codes might be displayed when you deploy the power plan with the power plan deployment
function.
Output code Description
RC_Success The power plan is imported or updated successfully.
RC_NonParams Parameters are not specified.
RC_InvalidParams Callback options are not sufficient or the parameter
format is wrong.

-p policy setting is wrong.
RC_HavingSameName A power plan with the same name already exists.
RC_HavingMaxPowerPlans The number of power plans reaches the maximum.
RC_CannotImport You cannot create a power plan because of the policy
setting in the Local Group Policy Editor or in the
ControlPowerPlan command line.
RC_CannotUpdate The power plan cannot be updated automatically
because the new numeric value specified in the -u
policy setting is smaller than the previous one.

• The ImportPowerPlan command line and the ControlPowerPlan command line are not implemented on
Power Manager versions earlier than 6.60.1. If you run the two commands on these earlier versions, an
