Abstract

A chassis includes power supply units configured to be a primary source of power for several information handling systems. A chassis management controller monitors a power capacity of the power supply units, and sends a measure of first available power of the power supply units to one of the information handling systems. If the power limit of a sled connector is at least equal to the first power requirement of the information handling system, then it may be determined whether a total power available for the information handling system is at least equal to the first power requirement of the one information handling system. If the total power available for the information handling system is at least equal to the first power requirement of the information handling system, then the information handling system may be powered on.
