Abstract
A system may include a plurality of power supply units and a management device communicatively coupled to the plurality of power supply units and configured to determine a minimum number of power supplies required to support a maximum peak power budget for components of the system, determine a minimum number of power supplies required to support a minimum peak power budget for components of the system, and reduce a throttle threshold of a number of healthy power supplies of the system at which a fast throttling of the components of the system will occur if the minimum number of power supplies required to support the maximum peak power budget is equal to the minimum number of power supplies required to support the minimum peak power budget.
