[datacenter] Understanding power billing
Hi all,
Hope this list is still active...
I'm working on a VERY small in-house "ghetto co-lo" setup. So far, so
good, but one thing I'm stuck on is figuring out our actual power costs so
that I can give management some numbers along the lines of "this server
consumes 120 Watts, which costs us $X/month".
Any pointers to how kilowatt/hour billing is calculated? I was looking at
our power bill and it's pretty complicated. We get billed a certain
amount at $X/kw/h, and then after a certain amount of usage $Y/kw/h. I
don't mind just averaging that, as all I really need is an approximate
cost.
Any input, STFW, etc. appreciated. :)
Thanks,
Charles
