摘要： A system, method, and computer program product for reporting and recovering from an internal processor error in a multiprocessor system supporting system management mode. In accordance with the method of the present invention one or more replacement agents are allocated such as during system startup within the multiprocessor system. Machine specific error-reporting registers are monitored for one or more active processor agents during system operation. In response to detecting a faulty agent via the monitoring, a system management interrupt (SMI) request is issued to one or both the faulty agent and a selected replacement agent. In response to receiving the SMI request, the operating state of the faulty agent is copied to the selected replacement agent in system management mode. Operating system processing is then resumed using the replacement agent.

摘要： A jumper including a connecting face, a light-emitting face, and a light pipe extending from the connecting face to the light-emitting face is provided. The light pipe is operable to transmit a light from a provided computer hardware from the connecting face to the light-emitting face responsive to the jumper forming a circuit with the provided computer hardware. A method for fabricating a jumper is also provided. The method includes forming a plurality of receptacles on a connecting face of the jumper and incorporating a light pipe into the jumper such that the light pipe extends from the connecting face of the jumper to a light-emitting face of the jumper. A method for providing jumper installation feedback is further provided. The method includes mounting a jumper on a provided computer hardware and transmitting a light through the jumper responsive to the jumper forming a circuit with the provided computer hardware.

摘要： A method, system, and program product supporting dynamic configuring of a multi-node computer. The system includes a scalability management module directly coupled to each node in the multi-node computer. The scalability management module sets and maintains configuration parameters for the multi-node computer, wherein if one of the nodes is removed from the multi-node computer, a hot-spare node can be dynamically configured to replace the removed node without having to reconfiguring or physically reconnect the remaining nodes
