Embalm or bury dead servers—no necrophilia; storage too<br />

Virtualization—APC estimates 4× savings<br />

Put hottest, most heat-tolerant, and least mission-critical<br />

units at the top of mixed racks (failure rates are ~3× higher<br />

at the top—guess why!)<br />

Enable all power-management features (on/off, clock,<br />

voltage) to save ~20%+; insist vendors do so by default; if<br />

temporarily disabled, restore promptly<br />

Use science-based DB/RH specs, based on what real eqt likes<br />

Broaden RH ranges, calibrate RH sensors—no fighting CRACs<br />

Install ASDs on chilled-water CRACs; turn off unneeded units<br />

Demand-control ventilation by CO 2 levels<br />

Use/maintain OSA economizers (81% N CA saving)<br />

Just proper airflow mgt. can save ~75% of cooling energy
