| Summary: | A power management system for a multiple compute component system. The management system enables operational management of individual compute components in two low power states of operation, suspend and hibernate. In addition, the management system enables granular management of power consuming accessories within an individual compute component. When a compute component is in the low power state of suspend or hibernate, it may be hot-swapped to a different locale. In addition, when a compute component is restored from a low power state of hibernate, it may access an alternate image in the system. Accordingly, the power management system allows for five state of operation of an individual component in a multiple compute component system. |
