Abstract
An information handling system may include a processor, a plurality of information handling resources communicatively coupled to the processor, a power subsystem configured to deliver electrical energy to the processor and the plurality of information handling resources to enable operation of the processor and the plurality of information handling resources and a management controller. The management controller may be configured to create an inventory of the plurality of information handling resources; based on the inventory, determine a worst-case maximum power consumption of the processor and the plurality of information handling resources; determine if the worst-case maximum power consumption exceeds a power limit associated with the power subsystem; and if the worst-case maximum power consumption exceeds the power limit, cause a remedial action to be taken to maintain power consumption of the processor and the plurality of information handling resources below the power limit.
