Datacenter Capacity planner

Question

I've been tasked with finding out how much power and cooling we need in our data center, the issue I'm having with this dell utility, it does not cover some of the older lagacy equipment. I'm also using the Dell rack Advisor, wich does contain the older systems, but that utility does not provide as detailed of info. Is there another Rack configuration utilityout there that will accuratly tell me what thepower consumption and cooling requirements are for the older servers.

jvpdelta,I've made some enquiries on this.  The DataCenter Capacity tool includes servers that go back 4 generations and in some cases back to 6G Servers.  Can you provide some information on what models you need this information for and I'll see if I can get it for you.

sure, we have some pretty old stuff here,

I would like specs on the following-

PE2400

PE2450

PE6100

PE6400

PE6450

I didnt see the

1955 (EMC)

We also have a few older desktops running some propritary stuff

GX110

GX150

If you could get me that information I would appreciate it - If at all possible caculate the figures based on processor intensive and fully populated with drives, also all applicable systems have redundant power.

Thanks in advance for your help.
