    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for automatic hardware recovery. In some examples, a system can receive a notification of a device failure of a peripheral component interconnect express device associated a node. The system can also receive a first request to disconnect a link between the peripheral component interconnect express device and the node, and a second request to connect, after disconnecting the link, a replacement peripheral component interconnect express device with the node. The system can then reconfigure a peripheral component interconnect express switch fabric to disconnect the link between the peripheral component interconnect express device and the node, and connect the replacement peripheral component interconnect express device with the node.

    Abstract: A system and method for providing security key exchange and management prior to the operating system of the server and also provides for executing various security functions to prevent a virus or malicious software from propagating through the server and the network. The system and method utilize the BIOS firmware and baseboard management controller (BMC), which are more secure since they do not rely on open source code for software plug-ins from the user layer. As a result, a secure code can be created for key management with a globally unique identifier (GUID). The system and method provides for a network manager to easily and flexibly manage multiple security keys for a rack server system.

    Abstract: A method for controlling air flow in a server rack includes storing, by a switch, a connection table, the connection table comprising information for rack positions corresponding to switch ports of the switch. The switch obtains address information of at least one management controller corresponding to at least one device connected to the switch ports of the switch. The switch determines a rack position for each of the at least one device, based on the table and the address information. The switch receives from a rack management controller (RMC), a request for the rack position for each of the at least one device. The switch sends to the RMC, the rack position for each of the at least one device. The RMC controls fan speed for the at least one device, based on the rack position for each of the at least one device.

    Abstract: A modularized server comprises a rack, a switching mechanism, and a removable electronic device. The rack comprises a first slot and a second slot. The switching mechanism is disposed on the rack. When the removable electronic device is inserted into the first slot, the removable electronic device is operable to drive the switching mechanism to a switching position. The switching mechanism at the switching position can stop another removable electronic device different from a specific design of the removable electronic device from being inserted into the second slot.
