Interesting question, and I also want to know if it is possible.
For my knowledge, there is no software to be able to record the power consumption. maybe you can buy some hardwares to record it.
You have to guess from product specs, plus more disks, more CPU need more power.

Inorder to find the user memory consumption I used the command: prstat -s cpu -a -n 10
But now I want to automate it and want to write the output to a file.
How can I write the out put of user name and percentage of consumption alone to an output file.? (2 Replies)

NAME
powertop - a power consumption and power management diagnosis tool.
SYNOPSIS
powertop [ options ]
DESCRIPTION
powertop is a program that helps to diagnose various issues with power consumption and power management. It also has an interactive mode
allowing one to experiment with various power management settings. When invoking powertop without arguments powertop starts in interactive
mode.
OPTIONS
--csv[=FILENAME]
generate a CSV report. If a filename is not specified then the default name "powertop.csv" is used. The CSV report can be used for
reporting and data analysis.
--calibrate
runs powertop in calibration mode. When running on battery, powertop can track power consumption as well as system activity. When
there are enough measurements, powertop can start to report power estimates. One can get more accurate estimates by using this
option to enable a calibration cycle. This will cycle through various display levesl and USB device activities and workloads.
--debug
run in "debug" mode.
--extech=devnode
use the Extech Power Analyzer for measurements. This allows one to specify the serial device node of the serial to USB adaptor con-
necting to the Extech Power Analyzer, for example /dev/ttyUSB0.
--help
show the help message.
--html[=FILENAME]
generate an HTML report. If a filename is not specified then the default name "powertop.html" is used. The HTML report can be sent
to others to help diagnose power issues.
--iteration[=iterations]
number of times to run each test.
--time[=seconds]
generate a report for a specified number of seconds.
--version
print version information and exit.
