    Abstract: A dual CMC structure is disclosed for a rack mounted structure. The structure has a first chassis with power supplies, a first chassis management controller, and a first set of network devices. A second chassis includes power supplies, a second chassis management controller and a second set of network devices. The respective chassis management controllers obtain status data of the power supplies, as well as status data from the other chassis management controllers. The first chassis management controller is designated as the master controller and reports the status data from both the first and second chassis. The structure is operable to change communication of the status data to the second chassis management controller, in the event the first chassis management controller fails.

    Abstract: Disclosed are a system, method, and computer-readable medium for optimizing a fan control system inside a rack system. In at least one example embodiment, the system can include a rack server with a plurality of chassis each having at least one node, each of the nodes including at least one adjustable air vent and configured for adjusting the at least one adjustable air vent based on an air flow requirement of the node. The system can further include a plurality of fans, where the plurality of fans are configured to operate based on a control signal. The system also can comprise a fan control logic board, wherein the fan control logic board is configured to receive from each node in the plurality of chassis the air flow requirements and based on the plurality of air flow requirements generate and transmit the control signal to the plurality of fans.

    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 system for sharing input/output using universal sleds includes a first universal sled that includes a first switch and a first universal node, and a second universal sled that includes a second switch and a second universal node, where the first universal sled and second universal sled have interchangeable physical dimensions. The midplane board includes a management processor and a midplane switch. The system further includes an input/output sled and a bus that connects the first universal sled, the second universal sled, the midplane board, and the input/output sled.
