Re: [Wg-test-framework] [Minutes] March Test WG meeting

[Ian Jackson <Ian.Jackson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I spoke to John Dilley of the XenRT team here at Citrix and he looked
at the consumption of a couple of racks for me to give some estimates
of power usage.

Both racks contained mostly idle machines.  The first rack contained
quite new dual socket AMD servers, which were using 175W each.  The
second contained somewhat older dual socket servers, using 200W each.

On the one hand we're going to have a fair few single socket machines
which will use less power, and most of them will be reasonably new.
On the other hand they will perhaps be less idle.  And we'll have two
bigger infrastructure boxes (VM hosts) which won't be idle.

I think therefore, overall, we should budget for 200W per machine.

Thanks,
Ian.
