Re: Power usage information?

AC runs at constant temperature 24x7 - we would get an e-mail alert if the
temperature in the computer room rose above 75. We also have an operator
that goes into the room every 2 hours and records the temperature. On
Sunday at 6:00 PM, he recorded 69, at 8:00 PM he recorded 71 - the e-mail
was sent between 7:00 and 8:00 PM.

Do you tell your air conditioners to not run over the weekend, or to not
cool as much? When a system gets above a certain temperature more power
sucking fans kick in. And that's not a temperature hot enough to alert
the troops.

I didn't see anything in iNav monitors for power consumption.

Checking to see if there's something in IBM Systems Director that does so.

Power usage information?
Sent by:

We have an iSeries 9406-550 at V5R4.

Every Sunday night at roughly the same time, we get an e-mail from our UPS

indicating that "The size of the load on the UPS is greater than the
rating
on the UPS." We are trying to determine what device is causing this
overage. Some of the other devices in our computer room can display a
graph
of power usage over the past 24 hours. Is there something that shows the
power usage of iSeries over the past few hours that we can use to solve
this
mystery? If not power usage, is there something that shows that the
system
activated a processor (on its' own) or other component that would cause
the
overage?

(The room is secured by access card, so we know that no one is going into
the room and plugging in a vacuum cleaner, etc.)

Thanks,

Steve
