H A P T E R PUE/DC HAPTER 6.1. Facility Power Monitoring PUE and DCiE calculations are valuable metrics used by data centers to track their energy efficiency. PUE measures the efficiency of the computing equipment, while DCiE measures the efficiency of the data center’s infrastructure. Maximizing the energy efficiency of computing equipment and the data center infrastructure helps reduce energy costs and can minimize data center down time.
Page 122: Designating Pue/Dcie Data
PUE/DCiE Before you can generate PUE/DCiE data through the FMS, you need some data for the FMS to work with. Submeters need to be wired, or SNMP/Modbus communications need to be established to gather the following kilowatt (kW) readings: Utility load - The main power feed into the building - usually obtained through a submeter.
