A while ago I found that I needed power usage stats also (these new P4 Zeons suck up a lot of power :). I got some baytech PDUs with LEDs and console access (forget which specific model). Looked very cool. Except that I am in Los Angeles county. LA takes a dim view of selling equipment that is not UL certified. Apparently it is illegal to both sell and operate :( After several months of "We should have it soon", I bought APC units. The APCs (AP7901) are very nice. snmp and ftpable stats. They even do ssh! No individual per ports stats, and only to 1/10th amp. But no more popped circuit breakers from new servers. http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP7901 > -Justin > > On Sun, 7 Aug 2005, > Mike Leber wrote: > > > > > > > There have been suggestions of good SNMP monitorable power strips here > > before, however I'm looking for a power strip with individually > > monitorable outlet current (via SNMP). > > > > I've searched google for quite a while and can't seem to separate out such > > a beast from all the remote power management strips that just monitor > > aggregate usage. > > > > I have an application where I need to record the variation in power > > consumption for individual devices over time.
