Hello !

We have the need to follow and manage the power consumption of each blade, one by one, from our IBM Blade Center system.

Is there a way to do this ?

Anyhow it's a licensing upgrade or external/internal module to add on the blade system.
Those informations have to be readable by SNMP or IPMI.

Many thanks!

Blade systems almost always have a shared power backplane connected to N+1 power supplies. It would be hard to figure out individual blade power usage w/o having that capability already baked in.

If it's that important, then you should be talking with your IBM Business Partner.
