Abstract

A baseboard management control subsystem may determine a fan speed value associated with a fan speed used to cool a particular hardware configuration of an information handling system. The baseboard management control subsystem may further determine a power value associated with a power consumed by a fan running at the determined fan speed value. The baseboard management system may manage power within the information handling system based on the determined fan speed value and the determined power value.
