Abstract

A method determines actual power consumption for system power performance states (SPP-states) of a server. The method comprises initializing the server, performing a worst case workload test, measuring power consumption of the server at one or more SPP-states, and adjusting values in a lookup table to reflect the measured power consumption of the server.
