Symptoms of Poor Data Center Operations
I flew to London to put a
Post-It note on a rack!
It’s like the wild west!
I use Excel (Access) to
track what’s there
I found some servers and I didn’t
know where they came from or
who installed them
Schneider Electric – Data Center Science Center WP 107 Presentation – February 2014Schneider Electric – Data Center Science Center WP 107 Presentation – February 2014
My CIO said “There’s some white
space – put the servers there!”
When I come in every
morning, I can HEAR if
everything is okay
My hand at the back of the rack –
THAT’s how I find hot spots I could fix this if we had a
fire – a BAD fire!

How does my trending look for
How will a new server impact the
existing branch circuit?Where do I place my next server?
Schneider Electric – Data Center Science Center WP 107 Presentation – February 2014Schneider Electric – Data Center Science Center WP 107 Presentation – February 2014
How does my trending look for
server CPU utilization across the
entire data center?
Do I need to spread out my blade
servers to get reliable operations?
Does the existing power and cooling
equipment have the capacity to
accommodate new server technologies?
IT Manager
Do I have underutilized servers that
could be consolidated ?
