Systems and methods for thermal control of information handling resources based on system architecture

1. An information handling system comprising:

a processor; and

a management controller communicatively coupled to the processor, and having stored thereon:

a thermal table comprising thermal parameters for thermal management of one or more information handling resources of the information handling system based on respective physical locations of the one or more information handling resources within the information handling system, wherein the respective physical locations are indicative of whether the information handling resources are located at a front or a rear of the information handling system; and

firmware comprising instructions executable by the management controller and configured to, for each particular information handling resource of the one or more information handling resources:

identify a respective physical location of the particular information handling resource within the information handling system;

based on the respective physical location, read an entry from the thermal table; and

apply at least one thermal parameter from the entry for thermal management of the particular information handling resource.

2. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the one or more information handling resources comprises an Open Compute Project (OCP) port.

3. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one thermal parameter comprises a threshold temperature associated with the particular information handling resource.

4. A method comprising:

identifying a respective physical location of a particular information handling resource within an information handling system, wherein the respective physical location is indicative of whether the information handling resource is located at a front or a rear of the information handling system;

based on the respective physical location, reading an entry from a thermal table comprising thermal parameters for thermal management of one or more information handling resources of the information handling system based on respective physical locations of the one or more information handling resources within the information handling system; and

applying at least one thermal parameter from the entry for thermal management of the particular information handling resource.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the particular information handling resource comprises an Open Compute Project (OCP) port.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the at least one thermal parameter comprises a threshold temperature associated with the particular information handling resource.

7. An article of manufacture comprising;

a non-transitory computer readable medium; and

computer-executable instructions carried on the computer readable medium that are executable by a processor to:

identify a respective physical location of a particular information handling resource within an information handling system, wherein the respective physical location is indicative of whether the information handling resource is located at a front or a rear of the information handling system;

based on the respective physical location, read an entry from a thermal table comprising thermal parameters for thermal management of one or more information handling resources of the information handling system based on respective physical locations of the one or more information handling resources within the information handling system; and

apply at least one thermal parameter from the entry for thermal management of the particular information handling resource.

8. The article of claim 7 , wherein the particular information handling resource comprises an Open Compute Project (OCP) port.

9. The article of claim 7 , wherein the at least one thermal parameter comprises a threshold temperature associated with the particular information handling resource.
