How can I monitor power usage of blades

ServerPains — Fri, 08 Apr 2022 06:59:33 GMT

I have iLO 2.8 running on all sl230s blades in an s6500 chassis.

I need to monitor the total power usage in real time which means I'd like to poll the blades and consolidate that somewhere.

Can someone share some ideas on how to go about this. I really don't want to have to set up SNMP and the only solutions I find are costly HPE hardware/software tools meant for large installations.

You can monitor the power usage from ILO.

Cheers.

Yup, I know that.

Question is;

Thanks.
