Re: Drivers/motherboards with wattage & amperage sensors?

Some colleagues of mine are doing some experiments where they would
like to monitor power and current of different system components in
real time while running various HPC workloads.  They're willing to buy
whatever kind of motherboards they need that provide the sensors they
need.  They're aware that, for instance, Apple computers provide all
these sensors, but buying a cluster of MacBook Pros would be too
expensive.

Can anyone recommend a motherboard with these sensors that are
supported by lm_sensors?

I don't think there are any motherboards that have wattage sensors, but there are power supplies that can report these figures (e.g. over USB.)

See http://www.nvidia.com/object/nvidia_esa.html for a few. I don't know whether there is Linux support for ESA yet, but the standard appears to be open. I did ask nVidia for a copy but never heard back though :-(

Cheers,
Adam.
