DescriptionName
What happens to a server when the demand for power within a power
group exceeds the power supply. This can be one of the following:
• No Cap—The server runs at full capacity regardless of the power
requirements of the other servers in its power group.
• cap—The server is allocated a minimum amount of power capacity
based on the the server's priority relative to the other servers in its
server group. If more power becomes available, Cisco UCS allows
the capped servers to exceed their original allocations. It only
lowers the allocations if there is a drop in the total power available
to the power group.
