2. While you're at it, use the same data to help identify older, less efficient servers. Replacing older servers with new, high-energy-efficiency models reduces server energy consumption by 25%.
3. Set up smart sensors with your smart PDU to pinpoint where overcooling is occurring in the data center. Use ASHRAE-defined standards and safely raise temperatures, saving energy and money on overcooling.
4.Make your capacity planning decisions and provisions based on real-time data. Smart PDUs gather data to reveal the true power capacity of your data center.
Experiment with the Raritan Energy Management ROI Calculator to see how the savings can add value to your data center.

4 smart ways to save money with PDUs
1. Use measurement to help identify "ghost servers." One survey estimates that 8 to 10% of servers are "ghost" servers (servers running but inactive). Using a smart measurement PDU, such as one of Raritan PX's models, can help you identify these servers. Eliminate ghost servers and save real money.
