Limiting computing rack input power due to power supply unit failure

Abstract:

In some examples, a control unit is configured to control a computer server rack having a first grid power source, a second grid power source, and a battery backup system. The control unit is adapted to monitor a failed status of one or more power supply units in the computer server rack, to determine location information relating to the one or more power supply units having the failed status, to determine input power of the one or more power supply units having the failed status, to adjust an input power of the first grid power source based on the determined input power, and to adjust an input power of the second grid power source based on the determined input power.
