  • Systems and methods for extended power performance capability discovery for a modular chassis
    Patent number: 10139878
    Abstract: A chassis may include a plurality of power supply units and a controller. The power supply units may be configured to deliver electrical energy to information handling resources disposed in the chassis. The controller may be communicatively coupled to the power supply units and configured to: receive operational parameters associated with the plurality of power supply units; receive user configuration parameters governing operation of components of the chassis; and based at least on the operational parameters and the user configuration parameters, determine if the controller and the plurality of power supply units are capable of operating in an enhanced power performance mode, wherein when operating in the enhanced power performance mode, one or more power supply units that would otherwise operate as idle redundant power supplies in absence of the enhanced power performance mode are oversubscribed to allocate electrical energy to the information handling resources disposed in the chassis.
    Type: Grant
