Abstract
Systems and methods for managing computing devices in a data center based on collected environmental data are disclosed. Temperature data from the computing devices is periodically gathered along with environmental data from sensors inside and outside the data center. The collected data is used to create a correlation model between the outside environmental data, the inside environmental data, and the device environmental status. Weather data for the geographic location of the data center may also be incorporated into the correlation model, which may be used to predict future heat spikes and trigger preventative measures such as adjusting device fans, operating frequencies, reducing or shifting workloads, adjusting vents, and engaging cooling units.
