DATA CENTER POWER CONVERSION EFFICIENCY MANAGEMENT

摘要

A data center energy management (DCEM) server configures a power supply in the data center. The DCEM server sums input alternating current (AC) power of the power supply to a total AC power of the data center, wherein the total AC power of the data center is a sum of AC power of a plurality of power supplies. The DCEM server sums output direct current (DC) power of the power supply to a total DC power of the data center and reports a ratio of total AC power to total DC power as data center power conversion efficiency. The DCEM server sets a preset power supply efficiency threshold. The DCEM server determines that a real-time power efficiency level is below the power supply efficiency threshold. The DCEM server, responsive to a determination that real-time power efficiency level is below the power supply efficiency threshold, may remedy the power supply.

1. A computer implemented method for reporting power conversion efficiency information, the method comprising:
receiving, by a computer, a query for real-time power supply efficiency; and responsive to receiving the query, reporting the real-time power supply efficiency to a source for the query, wherein the query for real-time power supply efficiency is a query for the real-time power supply efficiency for a plurality of power supplies; and increasing power efficiency among a plurality of power supply units of a data center in response reporting the real-time power supply efficiency to the source for the query.
