1. A computer-implementable method of budgeting power allocation for an information handling system, the computer-implementable method comprising:
determining whether the information handling system is to be powered by a redundant configuration of multiple power supply units (PSUs) in a redundant PSU configuration including a primary PSU and a secondary PSU; in response to determining that the information handling system is to be powered by a redundant configuration of multiple PSUs, calculating a power budget, based on discovery of installed system components, of a first amount of power for the system that is less than a maximum power that can be consumed by the system and configuring the system to autonomously utilize unused operating margin of the redundant configuration of the PSUs during periods in which the system requires greater than the first amount of power; and in response to determining that the information handling system is not to be, or no longer, powered by a redundant configuration of multiple PSUs, calculating a power budget, based on discovery of installed system components, of a second amount of power for the system that is at least equal to the maximum power that can be consumed by the system, and which does not exceed the output of the primary PSU. |
