2.2.2. Measured Input Power

Table 2-3 lists the measured input power of ProLiant DL360 with varying subsystem components, to

illustrate the effects of adding or removing optional components. Table 2-4 lists each subsystem

component's input power derived from Table 2-3. A few test programs were run to exercise various parts

of the system, and the current and power were measured on the input side of the power supply. The “peak”

and “typical” input power values were measured during power up and idle/normal operations,

respectively.

Configuration

Number

ProLiant DL360 Configuration Power Input

Typical / Peak

1 1x550MHz, 1x128MB, 1x18.4GB (base-line) 90W / 110W

2 1x550MHz, 2x128MB, 2x9.2GB, Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition 102W / 131W

3 1x800MHz, 1x128MB, 1x18.4GB (base-line) 100W / 115W

4 2x800MHz, 1x1GB, 2x18.4GB, Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition 134W / 156W

5 2x800MHz, 4x1GB, 2x18.4GB, SA4200, Remote Insight Lights-Out

Edition

170W / 185W

Note: Peak power of a fully configured ProLiant DL360 (Configuration 5) was measured to be only about

67% of its rated peak input power. This power may be higher if the Remote Insight Lights-Out Edition

option is replaced by a RAID storage controller.
