Abstract
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therein, where the computer readable program code is adapted to, when executed by a processor, implement a method for managing a power supply system. The method includes identifying a number of power supplies included in the power supply system, and determining a first system mode for the power supply system. The method also includes determining a first operating order for the power supplies, and assigning a first ACTIVE ON threshold to each of the power supplies to obtain a number of first ACTIVE ON thresholds. The method further includes assigning a first ACTIVE STANDBY OFF threshold to each of the power supplies to obtain a number of first ACTIVE STANDBY OFF thresholds, where the power supply system provides electrical power to at least one computer system.
