The total system power is already aggregates as provided under ipmi
dcmi command.
You can read it like:
Inband: (within system)
root@ubuntu:~# ipmitool dcmi power reading
Instantaneous power reading: 485 Watts
Minimum during sampling period: 485 Watts
Maximum during sampling period: 486 Watts
Average power reading over sample period: 485 Watts
IPMI timestamp: Wed Jun 7 15:53:08 2017
Sampling period: 00000010 Seconds.
Power reading state is: activated
Out-of-band: (Over BMC network)
[sv@drishya] ~ % ipmitool -I lanplus -H bmc -U bmc-user -P bmc-pw dcmi power
reading
Instantaneous power reading: 486 Watts
Minimum during sampling period: 483 Watts
Maximum during sampling period: 486 Watts
Average power reading over sample period: 484 Watts
IPMI timestamp: Wed Jun 7 15:54:11 2017
Sampling period: 00000010 Seconds.
Power reading state is: activated
You do get component power consumption from IPMI SDR, you can get
those from inband or out-of-band. But you need not manually add it up.
On-Chip-Controller (OCC) does the power aggregation already and
exports it through DCMI power reading.
