Abstract: System and method to use position information about a power supply unit (PSU) within a system for status reporting or control. The system may have multiple slots into which the PSU may be installed, and each of multiple PSUs installed may sense position information, such as an indication of the slot into which it is installed. A controller may receive the position information in connection with status information such that faults or other events associated with a PSU may be reported to a system operator in connection with a position of the affected PSU. The controller may determine adjustments to operating parameters of the PSUs that are impacted by position and may direct commends to the appropriate PSU based on the position information.
