Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for hardware recovery are disclosed. In some examples, a system can detect a hardware error and identify a system component associated with the hardware error. The system can then generate a request configured to trigger an operating system of the system to place the system in a particular operating state. The particular operating state can be determined based on a component type of the system component. The particular operating state can be a first sleep state when the component type is a peripheral component or a second sleep state when the component type is a processor, a memory, or a power supply. The second sleep state can result in a lower power resource consumption than the first sleep state. The system can generate an indication that the system component can be replaced without restarting the operating system.

Abstract: A server cluster including a network switch and multiple server nodes is provided. The network switch is connected to an external network. Each server node performs an operation system and respectively includes a network port, a network chip and a south bridge chip. The network port is connected to the network switch via a cable. The network chip outputs a power-off signal according to a received power-off packet after the network switch is started. The south bridge chip outputs a shutdown signal to shut down the server node according to the power-off signal when the server node is turned on and the operation system is working normally.

Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to a universal debug design which involves integrating a debug controller and a debug card with display together into a single debug design. Debug codes, such as power-on self-test (POST) codes and other error codes, are generated by various subsystems of a server-related system. The codes are transmitted to a controller, which stores the codes in memory. In some embodiments, a multiplexer outputs one debug code from the multitude of received codes, based on a user or event selecting which desired debug code should be displayed. In some embodiments, a decoder converts and sends the LED display signals to a debug card, which displays the debug code on a 7-segment LED display.

Abstract: In some implementations, service controllers of a computing device are associated with various disparate components of the computing device, and in response to a command issued to any one of the components, the service controllers may communicate with each other in order to transmit data responsive to the command. For example, a computing device may comprise a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) and a Serial Attached SCSI Expander card (SAS Expander). The BMC of computing device receives a remote command requesting status of a hard drive coupled to the computing device, and the BMC communicates the command to the SAS Expander, for example over a system bus of the computing device. The SAS Expander retrieves a response to the command and communicates the response to the BMC, which then transmits the response to the remote site.

Abstract: A method for automatic clock configurations is performed by a system having a host and a peripheral device. The host indicates on a first general-purpose input/output (GPIO) of a peripheral interface connecting the host and the peripheral device, whether the host supports a first clock configuration. The peripheral device receives from the first GPIO whether the host supports the first clock configuration. The peripheral device selects, in response to the host supporting the first clock configuration, use of a local clock of the peripheral device. The peripheral device selects, in response to the host not supporting the first clock configuration, use of a common clock of the host.

Abstract: A controller in a server system can determine whether to share a network connection of the server system. In response to determining to share the network connection, the controller can disable a dedicated network connection between the controller and a network interface controller (NIC) in the server system, enable a first shared network connection between the controller and a computing module in the server system, and enable a second shared network connection between the computing module and the NIC. In response to determining not to share the network connection, the controller can enable the dedicated network connection between the controller and the NIC.
