Trending PowerManagement

(imported topic written by jamieorth91)

I have followed the KB Article here -

This is the output I get on the screen - does this look right? I was concerned with the “Could not get numServer: Track Servers is not checked” statement.

Hey Jamieorth,

It looks like eveyrhting is working correctly, based on this log. The message language is a bit weird (should be changed to “Did not get servers: track servers is not checked”), but basically this message means that the “track servers” check box in the power management dashboard is de-selected, so the utility will not gather data from server machines. Tracking servers is disabled by default in teh dashboard.
