System and method for load dependent frequency and performance modulation in bladed systems

摘要

In a blade-based computer system, the number of loaded blades in the system is determined. Next, an optimal performance configuration for each of the individual blades is determined. The optimal performance configuration is based at least in part on the number of the blades loaded in the chassis and the overall thermal and power envelope. Then an individual frequency for at least one of said individual blades is set creating a more efficiently run system.
