Red Hat Enterprise 6 loads userspace governor instead of ondemand on HP ProLiant DL380 G7

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • Red Hat Enterprise 6 loads userspace governor instead of ondemand on HP ProLiant DL380 G7
[root@dl380g7 cpufreq]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor 
userspace
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 has switched the default governor to ondemand but on pcc-cpufreq system, e.g., HP ProLiant DL380 G7, it uses userspace governor. Expectation is to use ondemand for uniform behavior.

Environment

  • HP ProLiant DL380 G7
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
  • cpuspeed <= 1.5-15.el6
