I use ipmitool measuring power server power consumption, getting the following results without total power consumption as the following picture, do I add all power values as total power consumption? I am eager to receive someone's replay¡£Thanks¡£

The total system power is already aggregates as provided under ipmi
dcmi command.

You can read it like:

Inband: (within system)

***@ubuntu:~# ipmitool dcmi power reading

Instantaneous power reading: 485 Watts
Minimum during sampling period: 485 Watts
Maximum during sampling period: 486 Watts
Average power reading over sample period: 485 Watts
IPMI timestamp: Wed Jun 7 15:53:08 2017
Sampling period: 00000010 Seconds.
Power reading state is: activated

Out-of-band: (Over BMC network)

[***@drishya] ~ % ipmitool -I lanplus -H bmc -U bmc-user -P bmc-pw dcmi power reading

Instantaneous power reading: 486 Watts
Minimum during sampling period: 483 Watts
Maximum during sampling period: 486 Watts
Average power reading over sample period: 484 Watts
IPMI timestamp: Wed Jun 7 15:54:11 2017
Sampling period: 00000010 Seconds.
Power reading state is: activated


You do get component power consumption from IPMI SDR, you can get
those from inband or out-of-band. But you need not manually add it up.
On-Chip-Controller (OCC) does the power aggregation already and
exports it through DCMI power reading.

From a peer.. Rafael Peria de Sene...

At Unicamp we developed a power monitor based on IPMI output to monitor our
Minsky usage.

Take a look at http://177.220.10.134/powergraph
