Description: System powercap directory and attributes applicable for
Powernv (P8, P9) servers
This directory provides powercap information. It
contains below sysfs attributes:
- powercap-min : This file provides the minimum
possible powercap in Watt units
- powercap-max : This file provides the maximum
possible powercap in Watt units
- powercap-current : This file provides the current
powercap set on the system. Writing to this file
creates a request for setting a new-powercap. The
powercap requested must be between powercap-min
and powercap-max.
