Setting the Power Management Hardcap Power Limit Prior to Booting the System Does Not Control System Power

If you set a power limit with timelimit=0 (none) prior to booting the system, and the operating system (OS) is Solaris, the power limit is not adhered to by the system.

Workaround

After the OS is booted, do the following:

1. Disable the budget activation state.

2. Re-enable the budget activation state.

   Note - This must be done each time after the OS is booted.
