Cool servers, cool graphs
While preparing for a demo I just remembered one of the ideas from one of my teammate that it will be nice if we can show how system load affects the amount of power consumed by a system. I simply picked up the right counters and plotted them for a day or two while doing something or the other on that system.
Some interesting data, one can notice a slight jump at the beginning where current utilization (Amperage with respect to the processor) and the temperature (about 1 degree Celsius) went up when I was trying to create many zones using Solaris Container Manager on this server. The processor remained cool for most of the time, the utilization peaked when I ran some mathematically intensive programs but the system remained cool in general.
The other thing that I walked away with, is that this T2000 was running a full blown SunMC install and the CPU utilization/ system load is barely noticable.

Hello My name is John Brewington. I am very impressed with the T2000 system performance and I agreethat the cpu utilization load is almost very small. I always admired sun servers and sun systems and was wondering if anything new is coming out soon for server based technology Best Regards John Brewington
