Base Clock is not identified on ubuntu 20.04

Hello.
Intel Xeon 4216, 6226R is in use on ubuntu 20.04.

 

If you check with turbostat, cpu /proc/cpuinfo, etc., the Base Clock should be 2.1GHz and 2.9GHz, respectively, but it is confirmed to be 800MHz and 1200MHz.

 

When I looked it up, I found the following information.
https://community.intel.com/t5/Processors/Intel-CPU-CONSTANTLY-Throttled-to-Lowest-Frequency-Ubuntu-20-04/m-p/1255338?profile.language=ko

 

As you answered above, I am inquiring because I couldn't find a solution even if I searched for OS community. (It doesn't solve with cpufreq, cpupower, tuned, etc.)

 

Other services such as Openstack are checked as above, and normal clocks are checked only on servers in the k8s service. In the BIOS, the normal/abnormal server is set to Max Performance.

 

I would like to ask if the Intel P-state Driver allocates Base Clock differently for each service.

 

Thank you.

When did the problem start: unclear
BMC Log: It is difficult to provide because it is an HPE server. Can it be replaced with SSU log?

hello.

 

Thank you for leaving a comment.

no. Because the server is an HPE server, it is removable.

 

Thank you.

Hello.
I've searched and inquired about uuntu community, but I haven't received any information about cpu frequency fixation.

Would it be difficult to check the problem even if I deliver the SSU Log?

What we want to check is a solution, of course, even better, but it's important to make sure there's nothing wrong with the CPU.
