Chapter 12 Collecting Power Consumption Data and
This chapter explains how to export the power consumption data collected from registered power monitoring targets and how to display
it as graphs, and also describes the exported data's format.
12.1 Overview
This section details the power consumption data that is collected from registered power monitoring targets.
Resource Orchestrator calculates the power (in Watts) and energy (Watt-hours) consumed by a power monitoring target by multiplying
its collected electrical current (Amperes) by its registered voltage value (Volts).
This data can then be exported to a file in CSV format or as a graph.
The data can then be summarized or visualized as a graph, using an external tool such as Excel, to obtain a graphical representation of the
power consumed by each power monitoring target.
Information
In Resource Orchestrator, power consumption is calculated as the product of electrical current (A) multiplied by voltage (V). Normally,
power consumption is the product of an electrical current multiplied by a voltage and an additional phase factor (if the phase difference
between the current and voltage is defined as "θ", this factor is expressed as "cosθ").
Note
This data should only be used as a reference to evaluate the power consumption status. It should not be used as an exact power consumption
measurement for billing purposes.
12.2 Exporting Power Consumption Data
For details of how to export power consumption data, refer to "13.1 Exporting Power Consumption Data" in the "User's Guide for
Infrastructure Administrator (Resource Management) CE".
12.3 Power Consumption Data File (CSV Format)
This section explains the power consumption data file format (CSV format).
Each defined item of the exported power consumption data is separated by a comma (",").
Each line is exported in the following format.
-
Data format
Data is exported using the following format:
Time, power_monitoring_target_name ( data_type )[, power_monitoring_target_name ( data_type )]...
time1,data1[,data1]...
time2,data2[,data2]...
-
Header line
The header line contains column titles identifying the data (from line 2 and later) that is displayed under each column. Each column
title is set according to the data types that have been selected in the [Export Environmental Data (
dialog.
