Hi Arun,

Both PC or PE commands are almost doing the same function whereas these commands are model specific.

PC is to control the power.This command allows the user to switch the system power ON or OFF and equivalent to turning the system power off at the front panel switch.

PE is to enable the power and available on high end servers. Using this you can power enable/disable individual components like cell/cabinet/chassis/etc.

RS is to power recycle the box. It will power reset signal to all the hardwares.
