A DATA CENTER, A METHOD FOR COLLECTING POWER CONSUMPTION INFORMATION IN A DATA CENTER, AND A COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT

摘要

The invention relates to a data center, comprising an electrical power supplying structure and a multiple number of ICT units, each ICT unit being arranged for accommodating an ICT equipment therein and including an interface connected to the power supplying structure for feeding the ICT equipment. The data center further comprises a measurement device for measuring and storing at least one physical parameter that is associated with an actual power consumption of ICT equipment accommodated in a subset of ICT units. The subset of ICT units includes a single or a multiple number of the total number of ICT units. Furthermore, the measurement device is arranged for generating an alert signal when the measured at least one physical parameter deviates from a predetermined power consumption range associated with the ICT equipment of the subset of ICT units.
