摘要:
An information handling system includes a host including a central processing unit, a management controller enabled to communicate with the host, a network interface resource in communication with the host and operable to enable the information handling system to communicate via an external network, and a target system in communication with the host through the network interface resource. The management controller comprises an iSCSI initiator operable to generate a request to the target system for an initial OS image.
摘要:
Methods, apparatus and media for managing jobs of an object-oriented information model. Managing includes maintaining and updating job status information resuming interrupted jobs following a reboot of the host system, issuing job references to clients, and manipulating job data for example, listing, retrieving, and/or deleting job data. Each job of an object-oriented model may be represented in a cache by a data section comprising data describing the corresponding job. Data includes a unique identifier, job state information, action after reboot information, and whether the job requires that the system undergo a reboot.

摘要:
A data structure comprising a first set of data fields wherein each data field contains data representing a managed object of an object-oriented model; a second set of data fields wherein each data field contains data representing an instance of a collection class; a third set of data fields wherein each data field contains data representing an instance of a first association class; a fourth set of data fields wherein each data field contains data representing an instance of a data source class; and a fifth set of data fields wherein each data field contains data representing an instance of a second association class. At least one data field of the first set is associated with a data field of the second set by a data field of the third set, and the data field of the second set is also associated with a data field of the fourth set by a data field of the fifth set. An information handling system readable medium having stored thereon said data structure. Methods for modifying data of the data structure.
摘要:
A MOF file for management information of an information handling system is automatically generated from CIM metadata that represents the configuration of the information handling system and a CIM schema that defines classes of the CIM. A MOF file precompiler extracts MOF classes from the CIM metadata and applies the CIM schema to automatically generate the MOF file for the information handling system. A CIMOM mapping tool maps settings of different operating systems, such as WMI and Open WBEM, to provide a MOF file associated with each operating system's CIMOM implementation.

A method and system are provided for installing software code on a remote information handling system (RIHS) comprising a management access controller (MAC). A remote management station (RMS) is implemented to manage the RIHS by communicating with its MAC over a network connection. The RIHS is initially booted by selecting a virtual media device (VMD) emulating a predetermined physical mass storage device containing a boot file and appearing to be physically attached via the RIHS's USB bus. Once booted, the RMS transfers additional boot files and installation files containing network share information to the MAC. The MAC transfers the files across a USB bus to the RIHS's memory where they are loaded and installed. A network connection is established to a network share comprising software code installation files. The software code installation files are then transferred from the network share to the RIHS for installation.

摘要:
A system and method for identifying duplicate or similar class instances existing in two or more Common Information Model (CIM) namespaces, accreting them, and thereafter returning a set of class instances and their associated information based on predetermined criteria. In different embodiments of the invention, an abstraction layer is implemented to provide a consolidation namespace operable to aggregate CIM instance data from two or more namespaces into a single namespace. A CIM client management application can then access and search the resulting consolidation namespace for all CIM class instances instead of iteratively browsing individual namespaces. A consolidation provider queries CIM namespaces to enumerate instances of CIM namespaces, which are consolidated in the Interop namespace, and similarly enumerates class instance data, which is consolidated in the consolidation namespace. An algorithm is implemented to determine Get operations for client enumeration requests including, but not limited to, all CIM class instances from all CIM namespaces predetermined prioritization of CIM namespaces, and key value comparison.
