Embodiment approach

[0028]

[0029] like figure 1 As shown, the power saving system according to the present invention has a server room 10 and a management device 20 .

[0030] The server room 10 is a room for installing a large number of servers in an organization such as a company. It should be noted that the server room is just an example. In practice, an environment similar to a server room may be used as the server room 10 without departing from the scope of the present invention. The management device 20 is used to manage the environment in the server room 10, and is connected to various devices and devices in the server room 10 through a network. One management device 20 can manage a plurality of server rooms 10 . On the contrary, a plurality of management devices 20 can manage one server room 10 . For simplicity, a case where one management device 20 manages one server room 10 will be described here.

[0031] The server room 10 includes internal equipment 11 and racks 12 (12-i, i...

Abstract

Provided are a power saving system and a power saving method in which power saving is achieved by stopping unnecessary devices in a server room and interior equipment. Specifically, consolidation of virtual machines (VM) providing services is performed, processes are concentrated on a server in a predetermined rack out of a group of racks in the server room, the racks having no servers in operation are stopped, processes of interior equipment operating for the racks and their surroundings are stopped or adjusted so as to achieve power saving.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a power saving system, and more particularly to a power saving system in a virtual network environment. Background technique [0002] In recent years, a system based on the collaboration of a network and a virtual machine (VM: virtual machine) is used to construct an infrastructure to realize flexible cloud computing. The virtual machine executes the application program to provide various services to the user through the network. [0003] However, most of these virtual machines are run on multiple physical servers installed in a set of racks in the server room of an organization such as a corporation. Therefore, it is necessary to continuously operate a considerable number of servers and switches and internal equipment in the server room, which results in a large amount of power consumption and a large amount of resource consumption. [0004] Currently, power supply to devices required to run virtual machines, such as...
