Abstract

A power capping system () and method () are provided. In one embodiment, a power capping system () includes a power controller () configured to calculate an error between a predefined maximum desired power and a power feedback signal associated with actual power consumption of a server () and to provide a power capping signal that substantially limits the power consumption of the server () based on a predetermined gain constant and the error. The system also includes a management interface () configured to generate a normalization factor based on the power feedback signal. The normalization factor can be implemented to normalize the error.
