Dell C6220 II Power Comsumption

Hi,

I have a Dell C6220 II with 2 Nodes (2U Sled). How many Amps does it need to full power?

Hello MightyJainesh,

 

You can use the older one for C6000 / C6220 II you can use this one:

Hello MightyJainesh

 

It will be based on the power supply, either 1200 or 1400 watt, whatever amp they rated for would be max:

I think this will be helpful for you. C6220 II Technical Specifications listed here for Power on page 12.

I am using 1200W, using 120V Input.

 

The Power on the document is based on using 4 x 1U Sled. I am using 2x 2U Sled. Does that make a difference?

 

Looking at this website: https://www.itpro.co.uk/641575/dell-poweredge-c6220-review/page/0/1#:~:text=To%20test%20power%20consumption%2C%20we,%2C%20290W%20and%20350W%2C%20respectively.

 

They say the following:

To test power consumption, we hooked the C6220 up to our inline power meter. With each node loaded with Windows Server 2008 R2 and idling along we saw first, second, third and fourth nodes draw a total of 135W, 200W, 290W and 350W, respectively.

Using the Sisoft Sandra benchmarking app to push the CPUs to maximum load on each node we saw power peak at 364W, 671W, 945W and 1242W. Dell estimates the C6220 will save you around 100W of power over four servers.

 

Is there anything on Dell side that can confirm this? I have limited power available at the Datacenter, and need to know how many of C6220 I can power on without flipping the breaker at 30A.

 

Thanks

Hi,

That still doesn't answer the question.

 

Question is on a C6220 II with 2 Nodes (2U Sled), how much amp does it use?

August 29th, 2022 22:00

Is there a way to monitor or get reading if how much wattage it is consuming? Perhaps  through bmc ?

Hi, 
"Question is on a C6220 II with 2 Nodes (2U Sled), how much amp does it use?"
I'm afraid we don't have such knowledge. You could deduct from the guideline/specification I presented to check out the maximum AMP. Sorry I can't be of help this time. We could wait for other community users to see what they think about. And I'm afraid there's no such to monitor the power consumption, sorry the link didn't work. I re attach here https://dell.to/3wFcKlK this is the next best thing I could offer, but again this is relatively a new tool it would only show newer models.

The Power rating is very high compared to the C6220 model.

 

Can we still use the older version of this enterprise planner?

Hello MightyJainesh,

 

I don't see an off line installer.

I would recommend monitor the Enterprise Infrastructure Planning Tool landing page

http://dell-eipt-landingpage.azurewebsites.net/

 

It's statement: Please bear with us as we prepare the upgrades for the EIPT Offline Installer.

I don’t know if that will include the EOL version but you can check once it's released.

 

You may also submit questions or feedback to EIPT_Business_Partners@Dell.com

That works. I was able to make the configurations and see the estimate AMPs. 

 

Anyway to have this application saved as offline? Incase dell removed it from the website?

 

Thank you.
