Abstract:
Techniques and apparatus for managing a distributed computing environment using event digests are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may include at least one memory, and logic for a system manager, at least a portion of the logic comprised in hardware coupled to the at least one memory, the logic to determine a workload to schedule, access an event digest associated with a plurality of compute hosts, the event digest comprising event digest values determined using out-of-band information, determine metrics from the event digest, generate at least one host weight for at least a portion of the plurality of compute hosts based on the metrics, identify at least one candidate host from the portion of the plurality of compute hosts based on the at least one host weight, and schedule the workload on the at least one candidate host. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for coordinating and authenticating requests for data. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises: a baseboard management controller (BMC); and a request coordinator coupled to the BMC to intercept BMC requests and to provide intercepted requests to the BMC, where the coordination interface comprises a request parser to parse parameters for each of the BMC requests, one or more queues to store the requests while the BMC is servicing another BMC request, and a command submitter to send individual BMC requests to the BMC, wherein the BMC is operable to generate the responses to the BMC requests received from the coordination interface and to send the responses to the coordination interface.
Abstract:
An apparatus is provided which comprises: a first circuitry to receive a measurement of a first temperature of a section of a computing device during a first loading condition of the computing device, and to receive a measurement of a second temperature of the section of the computing device during a second loading condition of the computing device; and a second circuitry to detect a potential fault in a cooling system to cool the computing device, based at least in part on the first temperature and the second temperature.
Abstract:
Technologies for providing manageability redundancy for micro server and clustered System-on-a-Chip (SoC) deployments are presented. A configurable multi-processor apparatus may include multiple integrated circuit (IC) blocks where each IC block includes a task block to perform one or more assignable task functions and a management block to perform management functions with respect to the corresponding IC block. Each task block and each management block may include one or more instruction processors and corresponding memory. Each IC block may be controllable to perform a function of one or more other IC blocks. The IC blocks may communicate with each other via a management communication infrastructure that may include a communication path from each of the management blocks to each of the other management blocks. Via the management communication infrastructure, the management blocks may bridge communication paths between pairs of management blocks.
Abstract:
An apparatus and system for throttling I/O devices in a computer system is provided. In an example, a method for throttling device power demand during critical power events. The method includes detecting a critical power event and issuing a signal to system devices to defer optional transactions during the critical power event.
