System and method for managing energy consumption in a compute environment

摘要

Disclosed are systems and methods of performing a power cap processing in a compute environment. The method includes determining of one of committed resources and dedicated resources in a compute environment exceed a threshold value for a job. If a determination is yes that the threshold value is exceeded, then the method includes preempting processing of the job in the compute environment by performing one of migrating the job to a new compute resources and performing a power reduction action associated with the job, such as slowing down a processor associated with a job or cancelling the job. When such a power state reduction action is taken, reservations associated with other jobs may also be adjusted.

1. A method comprising:
determining if one of committed resources and dedicated resources in a compute environment comprising multiple separate compute servers that are connected via a network exceeds a threshold value for a first workload to be processed under a first reservation, to yield a determination, wherein each separate compute server comprises a central processing unit; and if the determination is yes: (1) preempting processing of the first workload in the compute environment by performing a power state reduction action associated with the first workload; and (2) based on the power state reduction action, adjusting a second reservation associated with a second workload that differs from the first workload, wherein adjusting the second reservation comprises changing the second reservation from a first server to second server in the compute environment.
