Single Node Power Control

Single node power control allows you to control power for all or selected interfaces within a single node.

See Tips on Controlling Power to Nodes with Multiple Interfaces for details on setting up power control operations for nodes with more than one power control interface.

  1. Click the node for which you want to control power in one of the node lists in the left panel. The Node details screen appears.
  2. In the Power Control section, click On, Off, Cycle, Graceful Shutdown, or Suspend to perform the corresponding power control operation for all interfaces associated with the node.
  3. A Power Status Messages window opens to show you the status of the power control operation. Messages populate the window as new information is received about the power control operation. Keep this window open until all power control operations are complete, so that you can monitor progress.
  4. See Power Status Messages for details on how CC-SG alerts you to successful and failed power control operations.

If a node has dual power supplies, you should have a power control interface for each power supply. Single Node Power Control enables you to perform a power control operation on only one or multiple interfaces.

  1. There are two ways to access Single Node Power Control for multiple interfaces:
    1. Click the Power Control tab at the top of the screen, and then click Single Node Power Control to open the Single Node Power Control screen.
    2. Click the node for which you want to control power in one of the node lists in the left panel, and then click Advanced in the Power Control section of the Node details screen for the selected node.
  2. Click the Node drop-down arrow and select the node for which you want to control power from the list. The Available list displays all interfaces in the selected node.
  3. In the Available list, select the specific interface upon which you want to perform power control and click Add to move the interface to the Selected list. Repeat this step until you have added all necessary interfaces to the Selected list.
  4. Arrange the interfaces in the Selected list in the order you would like CC-SG to perform the power operation. Select an interface in the Selected list and click the up and down arrows to move the interface into the desired sequence.
  5. Click the Operations drop-down arrow, and select On, Off, Cycle, Graceful Shutdown, or Suspend from the list.
  6. If you selected multiple interfaces, type the number of seconds (from 0-120) that should elapse between interfaces in the Sequence Interval (seconds) field.
  7. Click OK to begin the power control operation. Click OK in the confirmation message to start the operation.
  8. A Power Status Messages window opens to show you the status of the power control operation. Messages populate the window as new information is received about the power control operation. Keep this window open until all power control operations are complete, so that you can monitor progress.

    See Power Status Messages for details on how CC-SG alerts you to successful and failed power control operations.
