摘要: A computing system includes a component, a hot-swap controller that is coupled to the component, and a hot-swap controller monitoring configuration subsystem that is coupled to the hot-swap controller. The hot-swap controller monitoring subsystem receives a hot-swap controller monitoring configuration for the hot-swap controller that defines at least one monitoring characteristic for monitoring the component, uses it during an initialization of the computing system to generate hot-swap controller monitoring configuration commands, and transmits the hot-swap controller monitoring configuration commands to the hot-swap controller to configure the hot-swap controller to monitor the component according to at least one monitoring characteristic defined by the hot-swap controller monitoring configuration. During a runtime of the computing system following the initialization of the computing system, the hot-swap controller monitoring subsystem retrieves hot-swap controller monitoring data generated by the hot-swap controller for the component according to at least one monitoring characteristic.

摘要: Methods and systems for managing operation of data processing systems are disclosed. To manage operation of the data processing systems, the data processing systems may collect and use diagnostic data to manage various devices. The diagnostic data may be collected using different processes depending on the state of operable connections between components of the data processing systems, and the capabilities of the devices from which the diagnostic data is collected. The diagnostic data may be collected by invoking collection functionality of the devices, or through management of diagnostic data collection processes by other devices.

摘要: Methods, systems, and computer programs encoded on computer storage medium, for identifying a first user access event that failed authentication at the first computing device; creating a transaction block of a distributed ledger based on the first user access event; determining that data indicating the first user access event is not included by the distributed ledger, and in response, adding the transaction block to a temporal vector space of the distributed ledger; sharing, to each other computing device of the local network, the transaction block, wherein each of the others computing devices of the local network updates a local copy of the distributed ledger to include the transaction block in the temporal vector space.

摘要: An information handling system includes a memory and a baseboard management controller. The memory stores one or more device update packages, and each of the first device update packages includes an inter-integrated circuit payload. The baseboard management controller receives a first device update package, and stores the first device update package in the memory. In response to the first device update package being stored in the memory, the baseboard management controller launches a handler. The baseboard management controller retrieves a bus number and an address for a target device identified in the first device update package. The baseboard management controller parses data in a body of the inter-integrated circuit payload of the first device update package, and executes inter-integrated circuit commands in the body to provide a firmware image update to the target device.

摘要: A firmware update system includes firmware storage device(s), an operating system engine coupled to the firmware storage device(s), and a remote access controller device coupled to the firmware storage device(s) and the operating system engine. The remote access controller device receives a single out-of-band firmware update command and, in response, performs a firmware storage device unlock operation to unlock the firmware storage device(s), transmits a firmware update package including a firmware update utility and a firmware update image to the operating system engine to cause the operating system engine to utilize the firmware update utility to update firmware stored in the firmware storage device(s) that was unlocked with the firmware update image and, subsequent to the operating system engine updating the firmware stored in the at least one firmware storage device that was unlocked, performs a firmware storage device lock operation to lock the firmware storage device(s).

摘要: A hot-swap controller fault reporting system includes component(s), a hot-swap controller that is coupled to the component(s), and a hot-swap controller fault reporting subsystem that is coupled to the hot-swap controller. The hot-swap controller fault reporting subsystem identifies a hot-swap controller fault that was generated by the hot-swap controller and that is associated with the component(s), generates an Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) bit combination that is based on the hot-swap controller fault and that is configured to identify the hot-swap controller and a type of the hot-swap controller fault, and provides a log entry based on the IPMI bit combination in a log database.

摘要: A backplane management and configuration system includes a chassis housing a first storage system having a first backplane, a second storage system having a second backplane, a second computing device coupled to each of the first backplane and the second backplane via a second multiplexer and a communication bus, and a first computing device coupled to each of the first backplane and the second backplane via a first multiplexer and the communication bus. A backplane configuration/management subsystem in the first computing device detects a multi-computing-device configuration including the first and second computing devices in the chassis and, in response, determines a first computing device location in the chassis. Based on the first computing device location, the backplane configuration/management subsystem identifies a first backplane identifier for the first backplane and, in response, configures the first backplane for management by the backplane configuration/management subsystem and ignores the second backplane.
