Abstract

An example computing system may include computer module bays, a power subsystem to supply power to computer modules installed in the computer module bays, and a system controller. The power subsystem may also implement overcurrent protection (OCP) based on an OCP threshold parameter. The system controller may include dynamic OCP adjustment logic that repeatedly updates the OCP threshold parameter during normal operation of the computing system. The dynamic OCP adjustment logic may update the OCP threshold parameter by determining a power requirement of the computing system based on a current configuration of the computing system, determining a new OCP threshold based on the power requirement, and instructing the power subsystem to change a value of the OCP threshold parameter to a new value based on the new OCP threshold.
