Agenda Microsoft’s Role Windows and Power Management Power Management and System Center The phased approach with Configuration Manager 2007 R3

Microsoft’s Environmental Mission Technology Leadership and Innovation Leverage Technology for Positive Impact Global Partnerships Partner for Global Impact Environmental Practices Drive Corporate Sustainable Practices and Environmental Stewardship

Windows Energy Efficiency Vision The Windows OS enables the most energy- efficient computing platform, regardless of underlying hardware, attached devices or software workload

The next generation of Power “Low Power” state redefined in Windows Vista Improved in Windows 7 Deep focus on idle efficiency Core platform, background activity and device improvements Tools and diagnostics

Barriers to Adoption User Impact/ Productivity Cost Hardware Support Business runs after hours Centralized Reporting

Configuration Manager 2007 R3 Vision: Enable Configuration Manager to further reduce the operational costs of IT by providing basic power management features native to the Windows platform

Power Management Scope Client Scenarios Based on Stand by/Sleep Wake up for Management Dashboards of current power state Power Management Policy Create and Set Report Savings

System Center Power Management Monitor current power state and consumptions Plan and create a power management policy, check for exceptions Apply power management policy Check compliance and remediate non-compliance. Report saving in power consumption, environmental impact, and costs.

Phase 1: Monitor current state and consumption Enable Power Management Client Agent Hardware Inventory Client Agent required Gather power consumption and carbon footprint per collection Machine utilization trends per collection based on user activity Peak, non-peak and zero activity times Current power settings used by machines Calculate energy consumption (WATT, $ and CO2 footprint)

Phase 2: Plan and create power management policy Analyze the data and define right power policy based on user activity. Examples: User activity is heavy 8 – 11 AM, decrease 11 AM – 1 PM, and picks up again 1 – 4:30 PM 91% of people zero activity by 5 PM 91% of people zero activity by 4 PM on Friday %98 of people zero activity during weekend Look for machines that can’t support power management Exclude machines that shouldn’t be managed for power Define policy for each facility (organization, department) Define different policy for peak and non peak times Out of the box power policies Balanced, Power saver, High performance (XP, Vista, 7) Customize out of the box power policies

Phase 3: Apply power management policy Allow power policy to be applied at the collection level Places focus on Collection architecture Define peak and non-peak time for collections Define policy exceptions When multiple policies applied choose less or most restrictive Allow machine to wake up per collection (if under AC) during specified time to check for other ConfigMgr policy

Phase 4: Check Compliance and Report savings Various power settings inventory Display peak and nonpeak time for user activity Reports are run by collection Select a time period and report: Power consumption (kwh) Power cost ($) CO2 savings

Reporting on Power Management

Centralize Power Management Environmental Technology Maximize User Participation Reduce CO 2 Emissions/ Save Energy Reduce Power Costs Analyze Operations/Monitor Goals

Conclusion Power Management plays a key role in Green IT New relationship between Hardware Operating System Management Layer Windows has redefined Power in the OS Power Management in the box with System Center

Key Concepts to Power Management Word/Phrase/AcronymDefinition Power Plan A define set of power related settings that is bound together to form a higher level policy kWh The kilowatt hour, also written kilowatt-hour (symbol kW·h, kW h or kWh) is a unit of energy equal to 3.6 megajoulesenergymegajoules CO2 footprint Pollution prevented. Acres of trees planted, number of cars removed. Peak time The time of the day in which work hours are in effect, also reflects a time of work without interruptions and a less evasive power profile. Non Peak time The time of the day in which work hours are not in affect. Also reflects a time of minimal work and a more evasive power profile Noisy application An application that makes the system busy while a user is not at the machine thus making it not able to sleep User ActivityKeyboard and mouse activity generated by user. Work weekTypically Monday – Friday, 8 AM - 5 PM. Scheduled WakeThe ability of the system to wake itself via the RTC.
