  • Determining power capping policies for a computer device
    Patent number: 10037214
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for accurately determining maximum and minimum power capping values that may be used to increase power use efficiency (PUE) and reliability of a computing environment (e.g., a data center comprising one or more servers).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 16, 2015
    Date of Patent: July 31, 2018
    Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.
    Inventors: Sriranjan Bose, Chitkala Sethuraman
  • Profile based fan control for an unmanageable component in a computing system
    Patent number: 9760071
    Abstract: An unmanageable component may be any component in a computing system that does not expose a temperature sensor thereby preventing the component's temperature from being monitored. The embodiments described herein control a fan using settings that decrease the likelihood that an unmanageable component will overheat. Before a user-selected fan profile is used to control the fan, a power system management uses safeguarding profiles to mitigate the risk of overheating the unmanageable components in the computing system when selecting a fan profile. Stated differently, the power management system ensures the computing system does not use the user-selected profile to operate a fan if that profile may cause an unmanageable component to overheat.
