Patent ID: 11249533

Abstract:
A method may include, in a system comprising a plurality of power supply units, determining a redundancy configuration of the plurality of power supply units, determining a power capacity of the plurality of power supply units, determining a number of modular information handling systems installed in the system, determining a chassis-level maximum transient power limit for each of the modular information handling systems based on the redundancy configuration, the power capacity, and the number of modular information handling systems, determining a chassis-level maximum average power limit for each of the modular information handling systems, and communicating the chassis-level maximum transient power limit and chassis-level maximum average power limit to a respective baseboard management controller of each of the modular information handling systems, wherein each respective baseboard management controller is configured to determine if sled-level power requirements of its respective information handling system are within the chassis-level maximum transient power limit and chassis-level maximum average power limit.
