摘要:
A server manages power and performance. The server comprises a plurality of processor and associated storage and input/output interface components, arranged into a plurality of independent compute cells. One or more performance metrics descriptive of performance of the independent compute cell plurality are selected and an optimization evaluation of the one or more performance metrics is performed. The independent compute cell plurality is tuned based on the optimization evaluation.

A method of reducing power consumption of a computing system by a predetermined amount comprises: selecting at least one memory component of the computer system for reduced power consumption based on the predetermined amount of power consumption reduction; and evacuating the selected at least one memory component to reduce the power consumption of the computing system by at least the predetermined amount.

摘要:
A computer system includes software running on a hardware platform. The hardware platform provides a platform manager having an user interface that is independent of that for a mission operating system running on said platform. The platform manager issues platform requests for power-setting adjustments. The software includes a mission operating system with a power controller incorporated in or running on the mission operating system. The power controller adjusts power settings for hardware devices at least in part as a function of the platform requests.

License management of firmware-controllable features in computer systems is described. In an example, a computer system includes: a plurality of hardware modules having a plurality of features capable of selective activation; firmware-based controllers distributed among the plurality of hardware modules having control points to control activation of the plurality of features; and a management module to obtain license data and communicate with the firmware-based controllers to configure the control points to activate at least one of the plurality of features as permitted by the license data.
