home lab in retro case. build is finished but need to meter the wattages used. top server - newest build (for test/play esx) * Operating System/ Storage Platform: ESXi 6.7-update1 * CPU: Intel Core i7-7700T 2,90GHz * Motherboard: Supermicro X11SSZ-TLN4F * Chassis: Nokia IP440 firewall front...

Another option is to use the mrtg, it is easy to see when an process is stock at 100%

I have changed the limits on my x11 and here is an video with the details for it.

do you use compression ? that will cost some performance

looks like it is not very easy to change dead drives, do you have to power down and take it apart for that ? or can you easy hotplug the drives ?

For the new server that i am buiding with the same board, i have hacked in some extra heatsink on to the stock one for 10Gbe chip and VRM, the NB chip got just an extra big heatsink. the funny design of them is to have it in the case below the drives.

yes it is clear that the 10gbe rj45 is using much power, in my case the switch is rj45 so with that then it make best seen to keep using rj45. but it an good idea to use the sfp+ with direct cable and then save´on the power. as posted in the thread, i am building an new server with the same...

Do you use the lower p option to store the IPMI value over boot ? -n 41 -u 0:0:0:2200:2200:2500 -p I made an video about it for my build /Tooms

yes it is working parfectly and is now fully done and in the rack and running with vm's from the old server, below you can see the temp and fans. thinks i have learn sinces the buildlog/video.. * FAN limit was set to 100 for the low, but that is now changed to 0 for all fans except the CPU...

yes that also what i got, but it it only close to what the webinterface is saying, more correct value is 0.0641 but how and where does this value come from and it is differen for each volt sensor.

yes at the moment i think that X11SSZ-TLN4F + I7-7700T will be what is likely the best for me. +it is board is the same +cpu can be changed, so easyer reuse later +low tdp +newer board and cpu +guess newer pcie specs +normal ddr4 ram -more expansive d-1521 ++cheaper -have to hunt for used...
