Abstract: A system and method to dynamically balance power to a multi-node system is disclosed. A chassis management controller is operable to regulate the power from a power source to each of the nodes. The chassis management controller determines a setting power for each nodes and a real power consumed by each node. The chassis management controller determines a next setting power for each node based on the real power and unused total power and total additional balance power for the plurality of nodes. The chassis management controller commands each node to regulate the power consumption of the node up to the setting power value.

Abstract: A computing device configured to detect proper cable assembly to improve assembly and problem diagnosis is provided. The computing device includes a motherboard, a function board, and a middle plane connecting the motherboard and function board. The motherboard includes a baseboard management controller (BMC). The BMC is connected to I2C buses. The function board includes integrated circuits. The middle plane includes cable connections interconnecting the I2C buses that are connected to the BMC and the integrated circuits. The integrated circuits have unique system addresses that are identifiable by the BMC.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for providing a basic power to a system in an event that a standby power of power supply units (PSUs) of the system fails. The system comprises a plurality of active components, one or more PSUs, and a power switch. The power switch is connected to a standby power output and a main power output of the PSUs. The power switch can receive status information of the PSUs and determine whether the main power of the PSUs is within a predetermined range. In an event that the standby power of the PSUs fails and the main power of the PSUs is within the predetermined range, the power switch can switch an input power from the standby power to the main power of the PSUs and output a basic power for system use.

Abstract: A control circuit for managing a power supply unit (PSU) of a system board, routes a standby power port of the system board to a standby power port of the PSU. The control circuit monitors at least one electrical parameter for the standby power port of the system board by using a sensor, and determines that the at least one electrical parameter meets a criteria. The control circuit transmits an enable signal configured for enabling a main power port of the PSU coupled a the main power port of the system board and rerouting the standby power port of the system board to the main power port of the PSU, in response to determining that the at least one electrical parameter meets the criteria.
