Problems solved by technology

[0002] The deployment density of blade servers has been greatly improved compared with traditional server products, but its power consumption evaluation is particularly difficult due to the modular design method, but power consumption evaluation is a necessary link in the transition process from rack servers to blade servers , the accurate calculation method of the server manufacturer needs to perform welding and power-taking tests on the blade backplane and the blade main board, which is relatively complicated and cannot quickly give evaluation results when the user has multiple configurations

Embodiment

[0018] Calculate the maximum system power consumption for a 14-blade system:

[0019] 1. Calculate variable 2, shut down all computing blades, set the cooling fan speed of the main chassis to 4th gear (the highest), measure the input power consumption of the AC terminal 3 times and take the average value to get P box ;

[0020] 2. Calculate variable 1, turn on 5 computing blades, keep the cooling fan speed of the main chassis at gear 4 (the highest), set the pressure of all computing blades to 100%, measure the input power consumption of the AC terminal 3 times and take the average value to get P blade5 , turn off a computing blade and repeat the test, and get the AC input power consumption P of 4 knives, 3 knives and 2 knives in turn blade4、 P blade3、 P blade2 , the power consumption of a single blade P blade =((P blade5 -P blade4 ) + (P blade4 -P blade3 ) + (P blade3 -P blade2 )) / 3;

[0021] 3. The power consumption of the calculation system is as follows, P syst...

Abstract

The invention provides a simple power consumption assessment method of a blade server. According to most blade servers, connectors are used for achieving butt joint of all composing modules. Different from a method of measuring and assessing AC ends and DC ends of traditional servers, the characteristic that a grouped measuring mode is combined with the operation mode of sharing a power source by blade servers is utilized, grouped measuring and average measuring are combined to conveniently carry out project power consumption quick assessment, and the data requirement of user machine room matched construction is better met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer servers, in particular to a simple method for evaluating power consumption of blade servers. Background technique [0002] The deployment density of blade servers has been greatly improved compared with traditional server products, but its power consumption evaluation is particularly difficult due to the modular design method, but power consumption evaluation is a necessary link in the transition process from rack servers to blade servers , The accurate calculation method of the server manufacturer needs to perform welding and power-taking tests on the blade backplane and the blade main board, which is relatively complicated and cannot quickly give evaluation results when the user has multiple configurations. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a simple method for evaluating power consumption of a blade server. [0004] The purpose of the prese...
