Server power data

iLO 2 enables you to graphically view server power usage. The Power Meter Readings page displays
server power utilization as a graph. To access Power Meter Readings, select Power Management, and
click Power Meter. The Power Meter Readings page has two sections: Power Meter Readings and 24-
Hour History.
The Power Meter Readings section displays the following:
•
The data graph displays the power usage of the server over the previous 24 hours. iLO 2 collects
power usage information from the server every 5 minutes. For each five-minute interval, the peak and
average power usage is stored in a circular buffer. These two values appear in the form of a bar
graph, with the average values in blue and the peak values in red. This data resets whenever either
the server or iLO 2 is reset.
To increase visibility, click Zoom in, which increases the horizontal width of the data bars on the
o
Power Data Graph. A slider appears in this mode to enable inspection of the data in the same
size window.
To view current power utilization, click Real Time. The Real Time data graph displays power
o
consumption information over the previous 20 minutes, including peak power, average power,
and the power cap.
