Abstract
A heat potential value for each of a set of available server locations is calculated via a data center controller based upon at least one active server in a data center. A minimal calculated heat potential value for the set of available server locations is identified. An available server location associated with the identified minimal calculated heat potential value is selected from the set of available server locations. A maximal calculated heat potential value is identified for the set of available server locations. An available server location associated with the identified maximal calculated heat potential value is selected from the set of available server locations. A server located at the selected available server location associated with the identified maximal calculated heat potential value is automatically de-energized.
