Starting with latest firmware on Power 8 servers, support was added for Redfish API SV860_103_056 / FW860.30 (06/30/2017)

Support for the Redfish API for power and thermal properties for the chassis. The new URIs are as follows::

https://<fsp ip>/redfish/v1/Chassis/<id>/Power  : Provides fan data
https://<fsp ip>/redfish/v1/Chassis/<id>/Thermal : Provides power supply data

Only the Redfish GET operation is supported for these resources.

Connect to one partition to get charcteristics of CPUs, cores, socket, chip.

Number of Cores into the physical server: here 24 cores active
