Patent number: 11126255Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer readable media for enabling a power shelf unit to communicate a power throttle signal to devices of a power rack (or other grouping of devices) via a busbar. In particular, systems disclosed herein involve detecting a trigger condition associated with throttling power on server devices of a server rack. In response to detecting the trigger condition, systems here cause a direct current (DC) power supply voltage to change from an operating voltage to a notification voltage for a period of time to alert or otherwise communicate to server devices coupled to the busbar of the trigger condition. Causing the DC power supply voltage to change to the notification voltage may cause processors on server devices to throttle power consumption in accordance with one or more power capping policies implanted thereon.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2020Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Banha Sok, Rameez Kadar Kazi, Mark Andrew Shaw, Fredrick Anthony Constantino
