摘要： A packet is received from a network at an out-of-band (OOB) network interface of an OOB platform switch of a computer system. A destination of the packet is identified. A next hop is determined along a path the packet may be routed to reach the destination. The packet is forwarded to the next hop via the OOB network interface by the OOB platform switch.

摘要： An embodiment of the present invention relates generally to computer configuration and, more specifically, to a system and method to seamlessly determine the component configurations of a series of heterogeneous platforms and enable their respective component configurations to be intelligently migrated from one platform to another. In some embodiments, the invention involves generating configuration binaries for a plurality of target platforms. The configuration binaries are used with tools to create configuration directives for the target machines. In at least one embodiment, the configuration directives are sent to the target platforms in a scripting language. In some embodiments, the scripts are automatically generated by a tool using the configuration binaries for various platforms and policy guidance to determine which settings should be set on or off. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要： Provided is a method, program and system to update files in a computer system. A boot sequence is executed in the computer system to query a server over a network before loading an operating system to determine whether there is a patch to apply. The patch is received from the server in response to the query and the program files are updated with contents of the patch. The operating system is loaded in response to updating the program files.

摘要： A method, system and article of manufacture to establish a virtual drive accessible to pre-boot and operating system runtime phases. A virtual drive is constructed from a physical storage device of a computer system during a pre-boot phase of the computer system. A virtual drive controller is initialized during the pre-boot phase to support the virtual drive. Information on the virtual drive is accessed using the virtual drive controller by firmware during the pre-boot phase. The information on the virtual drive is accessed using the virtual drive controller by an operating system (OS) of the computer system during an OS runtime phase, wherein the information is comprehensible by the firmware and the OS.

摘要： Provided is a method, system, an program for power management of storage units in a storage array. A power profile is accessed for a storage array including a plurality of storage units, wherein each storage unit is enabled to operate in one of a plurality of power consumption modes, and wherein the power profile indicates a power mode specifying a power consumption mode. Data is migrated from at least one storage unit to at least one storage unit designated as an active storage unit consuming power in an active power consumption mode. The power consumption mode of at least one storage unit not designated as active is altered to the specified power consumption mode indicated in the accessed profile, wherein the specified power consumption mode consumes less power than the active power consumption mode.
