1. A system, comprising:

  • a chassis configured to house a plurality of information handling systems;

    a plurality of power supply units housed in the chassis;

    an enclosure controller that is coupled to the plurality of information handling systems and that is configured to;

    determine that a number of operational power supply units of the plurality of power supply units is below a first threshold;

    determine a first amount of power consumed by the plurality of information handling systems;

    determine if the first amount of power meets a second threshold;

    if the first amount of power meets the second threshold;

    initiate a first transfer of data from at least one volatile memory medium of a first information handling system of the plurality of information handling systems to at least one non-volatile memory medium of the first information handling system;

    power down the first information handling system;

    after the first information handling system is powered down, determine a second amount of power consumed by the plurality of information handling systems;

    determine that the second amount of power meets a third threshold; and

    initiate a second transfer of data from at least one volatile memory medium of a second information handling system of the plurality of information handling systems to at least one non-volatile memory medium of the second information handling system;

    if the amount of power does not meet the second threshold, determine if one or more chassis criteria meet one or more respective thresholds;

    if the one or more chassis criteria meet the one or more respective thresholds, power off the chassis; and

    if the one or more chassis criteria does not meet the one or more respective thresholds, initiate a throttle of one or more of the plurality of information handling systems.
