Peter,
I have never done it directly of a servers PSU, however I am sure it can be done via SNMP or on a lower level via a management interface(iLO, B/RSA, etc..).
However I have done it from a good APC PDU that had SNMP monitoring for all kinds of power aspects.
Hope that helps.

Hi all,
I would like to monitor the power consumption of my server. What I am looking for is:
* a simple monitoring device that would measure the power consumption of 1 server
* a way to get the consumption reading from that device to my centos server (via usb / wlan / whatever works)
Any suggestions?

I am also looking for a way to measure other devices than computers and I want to collect this information to the centos server. But I guess it doesn't matter what kind of device I connect to the PDU, it still can measure its power consumption and report it somehow?
Can you recommend any cheap model? I was aware of these PDU's existing, but I haven't really considered them as they probably are quite expensive as they do also many other things (monitor the load of the server etc)...
