On Integrity servers, CPU_POWER_THRSH is a parameter expressed as a percentage. OpenVMS Integrity servers monitors how active each CPU is over a fixed time period. If CPU_POWER_MGMT is on and a CPU is idle for a period of time indicated by CPU_POWER_ THRSH, the CPU is placed in a low-power mode if it is idle. A CPU returns to normal power when it receives an interrupt. For systems supporting real-time operations that require quick response time, HP recommends that this feature be turned off. Use of this feature can result in a small performance degradation. For more information, see the Intel IA-64 Architecture Software Developer's Manual, Volume 2: IA-64 System Architecture.
