Abstract
Systems and methods for a blade server to obtain the blade type and configuration of the chassis without requiring the blades to be fully powered. Using this method the user has the ability to acquire correct inventory and slot status of the chassis through the use of a low power auxiliary power state. The user is then able to apply the proper power budgeting and thermal algorithm requirements utilizing this information while minimizing the power consumption necessary to acquire such information. In addition, an intelligent search algorithm may be utilized to scan the blades for blade information thus further minimizing power consumption and decreasing the time needed to inventory the blades.
