    摘要: An aggregated server blade system includes a plurality of individual server blades and a management module which can be designated as a bootable device. A boot list maintained and executed in each server blade includes a management module entry in its list of bootable devices. In response to the management module entry being selected or otherwise made active as the bootable device for a particular blade, an alternative bootable-devices list maintained on the management module is referenced and the boot process proceeds according to the alternative list.

    摘要: A method of providing diagnostic service for a data processing system includes retrieving product data identifying a data processing element in response to an alert generated by the element. The retrieved product data is forwarded to a networked diagnostic site. A diagnostic package is retrieved, the diagnostic package including diagnostic code appropriate for the alerting element. The diagnostic package is forwarded to the data processing system. The diagnostic code is then installed and executed to perform diagnostic testing of the element. Results generated during execution of the diagnostic code may then be used to take machine initiated corrective action. After the results have been generated, the diagnostic software is uninstalled from the data processing system.

    摘要: A method for dynamically allocating lanes to a plurality of PCI Express connectors is disclosed that may comprise identifying whether a PCI Express device is installed into each PCI Express connector, identifying historic data traffic for each PCI device installed into the plurality of PCI Express connectors, and assigning a portion of the lanes to each PCI Express connector having a PCI Express device installed into the PCI Express connector. The method may also comprise identifying a device type for each PCI Express device installed into the plurality of PCI Express connectors. Moreover, the method may comprise creating allocation rules that specify the allocation of lanes to the plurality of PCI Express connectors. Furthermore, the method may comprise receiving user allocation preferences that specify the allocation of lanes to the plurality of PCI Express connectors.

    摘要: An improved method and system for determining the state of an operating system includes an operating system, a USB host controller that is driven by the operating system to send a polling signal to a USB device, and a management module that monitors the polling signal. If the polling signal has stopped, then the management module takes corrective action to restore the operating system. No specialized software or specialized hardware is required to determine the state of the operating system. The state of the operating system can be determined quickly and efficiently without adding to the costs of the system.
