Abstract
A method of adjusting core and un-core operating frequencies of two or more processors of a server includes determining core and un-core operating frequency variations versus power consumption limit variations of the two or more processors. The method also includes determining two or more first power consumption levels associated with the two or more processors. Each one of the two or more processors run at essentially a same target core operating frequency and at a same target un-core operating frequency at the respective first power consumption level of the processor. The method further includes adjusting the core and un-core operating frequencies of the two or more processors by setting a power consumption limit of each one of the two or more processors at the respective first power consumption level of the processor.
