Virtualization - Oct 2008 - [Question] power management related with cgroup based resource management

Hi, all

These days, I am interested in green IT area for low power OS
So, I have a question about it.
Is there any good idea or comments about power management related with
cgroup based resource management?
I have no idea about that, but it seems to be possible to find a good concept.
And I hope so
Is it some strange question? ^^

Regards,
Dong-Jae Kang

lesswatts.org, linux-pm (mailing list) are good sources on Power Management. I
would recommend asking at those mailing lists (there are several new features
like range timers, no idle hertz, sched_mc consolidation and much more). Could
you be specific about what you are looking for? Are you looking at
Server/Desktop power management?

Thank you very much for your kind recommendation.^^
this site information will be helpful for me.
As your recommendation, I will try to contact to lesswatts.org,
linux-pm (mailing list)

I am interested in power management in server side.
and I just wonder this question, "Is there any related point between
cgroup framework and power management?"

Thanks again

Not currently, though it would certainly be possible to use cgroups as a 
mechanism for providing application-specific power management.
