Claim 13:
14. A method of utilizing a hydraulic fracturing unit profiles to operate a plurality of hydraulic fracturing units for a hydraulic fracturing system, the method comprising:
providing a supervisory controller positioned to obtain data from a pump controller of a pump of each of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units and an engine controller of an engine of each of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units;
determining a status of the pump controller of each of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units via the supervisory controller;
in response to the determining of the status of the pump controller of each of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units:
obtaining pump maintenance data and pump event and alarm history data for the pump of each of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units, and
determining a pump maintenance cycle for the pump of each of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units based on the pump maintenance data and the pump event and alarm history data;

determining a status of the engine controller of each of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units via the supervisory controller;
building a hydraulic fracturing unit profile via the supervisory controller for each of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units including data and characteristics of the pump and the engine;
determining a subset of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units to use for a hydraulic fracturing operation via the supervisory controller based on each hydraulic fracturing unit profile; and
controlling at least one of the pump or the engine of the subset of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units during operation of the plurality of hydraulic fracturing units.
