--- Comment #6 from Jack Reed jreed@redhat.com --- (In reply to comment #4)
Yes, please delete the first step (about modprobe).
Sure, done. I've removed Procedure 3.1 as per Comment 2 and the first step from Procedure 3.2. This has effectively stripped that section down to the two commands and...
Great, I hardly follow all the changes :). But your substitution command is not correct. "cpupower frequency-info --governors" will show all available governors, but enable the specific governor by: "cpupower frequency-set --governor GOVERNOR" or simply by "cpupower frequency-set -g GOVERNOR". This will change governer on all cores (CPUs). You can also modify governor on specific core only (if supported by HW) by using the -c switch.
... this: I've also added an example command to explain the -c switch.
And oops - that was a typo with frequency-info. I had distinguished them properly in the XML but not here in Comment 3.
The command "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor" that you've asked to be retained has also been replaced, by "cpupower frequency-info --policy".
OK, no problem, just be consistent.
I just want to be sure that this is acceptable and you don't actually want the existing cat and echo commands to be retained despite the emphasis on cpupower.
The admon box from RHEL guide that very briefly noted that there are also the sysfs "echo/cat" alternatives is enough.
Great, OK. All is well then. Thanks Jaroslav.
