Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A server rack system including a plurality of power supply units, a monitoring circuit, a rack management controller (RMC), and a plurality of server nodes is provided. The monitoring circuit is for monitoring the power supply units. The RMC is for monitoring the power supply units. When the monitoring circuit and/or the RMC finds that at least one of the power supply units failed to output a normal voltage, an operation status of the server nodes is lowered or at least one of the server nodes is forcibly shut down.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A server rack system, comprising: a plurality of power supply units; a monitoring circuit for monitoring the plurality of power supply units; a rack management controller (RMC) for monitoring the plurality of power supply units; a plurality of server nodes; and a backplane controller communicatively coupled to the monitoring circuit, the RMC, and the plurality of server nodes; wherein the backplane controller is configured for lowering an operation…
