Setting the adaptive frequency boost
You can enable the adaptive frequency boost to enhance the nominal processor frequency.
This function supports a nominal processor frequency boost of approximately 3% by using critical path monitors. The default setting is enabled.
Disabling the adaptive frequency boost also disables the supergroup mode (if applicable), nominal start-up (if applicable), and all use of the critical path monitors.
To perform this operation,
you must have one of the following authority levels:
- Administrator
- Authorized service provider
To enable or disable the adaptive frequency boost, complete the following steps:
- On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
- In the navigation area, expand Performance Setup.
- Select Adaptive Frequency Boost.
- In the right pane, select Enable or Disable.
- Click Save settings.
