Abstract: An information handling system includes first and second power supplies, a chassis BMC, and a sled. The power supplies each assert a power good indication when the power supply is providing power on a power rail. The chassis BMC receives the power good indications and asserts a loss of redundancy indication when one of the power good indications is deasserted. The sled includes a sled BMC and a host processing system. The sled receives the loss of redundancy indication and in response, asserts a processor over temperature indication to the host processing system. When both power good indications are asserted, the chassis BMC directs the sled BMC to operate the host processing system in accordance with a normal operation sled current limit. When one of the power good indications is deasserted, the chassis BMC directs the sled BMC to operate the host processing system in accordance with a reduced power operation sled current limit.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a management controller that may determine average power consumption of a processor, and determine average power measurement at a power supply unit. If the average power consumption of the processor does not match the average power measurement at the power supply unit, then the system may calibrate the average power consumption of the processor to match the average power measurement at the power supply unit.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product for archiving image, audio, and text data with metadata encapsulation in a client-server storage library is described. The server receives and holds the images, audio, or text to be archived in an image, audio or text logical partition which includes a directory of the images, audio, or text. The information is encapsulated in a metadata wrapper and stored in the library as a closed image, audio, or text file along with a closed copy of the directory. The closed image, audio, or text directory is also stored in the client. The images may be encapsulated in MXF, DICOM, Tape Archive (TAR) or GZIP formats. The storage library may have magnetic tapes, magnetic disks or optical disks as storage media.
