ESXi Power consumption graph

So..

Has anyone got this working in their proliant servers?

I have some ML110 G6 machines, and ESXi just reports the power consumption as 0w constantly.

Anyone know what might be the matter?

Just a lack of sensors on the servers?

The very latest build of Esxi 4.1 build 348481.

Well I installed the HP Esxi Offline Bundle, and it Purple Screened.

lol.

Im starting to wonder if the ML110 has a power sensor, as looking at the ILO web interface, there isnt a reading for power consumption....

ML110 is super basic. It's as much a server as an ipod is a media center.

So I would imagine it doesn't have the full suite of diagnostics as the higher end kit.

Well mine are Quad Core Xeons, with 16GB RAM, hyperthreading, and full ILO 100i functionality. (remote KVM and virtual media).

I would say thats as server-ish as you can get really, without spending mega money.

This is a home setup, not production.

Ah yes, the PSA bus or whatever they call it....

Same with the redundant PSU's on SAN's
