I do the same, but with ganglia. I've noticed that different APCs report power differently (after comparing APC output to BCMS output.) Our newer servers also report power consumption via IPMI: /usr/bin/ ipmitool sdr type "Current". We also graph that via ganglia.

Not to go too off-topic, but if there is a more preferred location for me to ask, please let me know. I'm looking for recommendations on open source packages that people are using for monitoring power utilization of theirnetwork/server gear.We're using Cacti currently, pulling the data from APCs via SNMP, and Iwanted to check if someone had come across a better method before I reinvented the wheel.
