    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining the state of health for a capacitor module are provided. In some embodiments, a method for monitoring the health of a capacitor module comprising an array of capacitors is provided. The method may include steps for disabling a charger coupled to an array of capacitors of the capacitor module, determining if the capacitor module is healthy based at least on operating values of the capacitor module, and enabling a write back mode for the memory module if the capacitor module is determined to be healthy.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20090106125
    Abstract: An automated consumable ordering system and method obtains an information handling system purchaser's preferences for ordering consumables used by devices of an information handling system ordered for manufacture and loads the consumable ordering preferences on a consumable ordering module of the information handling system during manufacture. Consumable usage by the information handling system is tracked to a predetermined level at which the module orders consumables automatically from the manufacturer. The order is placed with a message that uses a service tag number associated with the information handling system. The manufacturer determines account information for charging the order from the service tag. The module updates account information by directing the user of the information handling system to perform updates through a secure Internet connection with the manufacturer or other secure established connection.
