    摘要: A method is disclosed to update multiple devices disposed in a computing system comprising a plurality of devices. The method receives a request to perform a firmware image update for a plurality of designated target devices, where each of those designated target devices comprises a first firmware image, and where the request comprises a second firmware image. The method uploads the second firmware image to a shared memory device, where each of the designated target devices is in communication with that shared memory device, and broadcasts an update command to each of the plurality of devices. The method determines the device state of each of the designated target devices, and if each of the designated target devices reports either an operational device state or an error device state, then the method reports that the firmware update is complete.

    摘要: A method, apparatus, and system are disclosed for exchanging services in a distributed system. A communication module receives an advertisement of service capabilities for a service provider. The communication module further receives a registration of service requirements for a service consumer. A match module determines if the advertisement service capabilities match the registration service requirements. A configuration module configures the service provider to supply the service requirements of the service consumer if the advertisement service capabilities match the registration service requirements. An establishment module establishes a service relationship between the service provider and the service consumer. The service provider provides the service requirements of the service consumer.

    摘要: A method to provide an alert notification and a reconcile action to a client computing system, the alert notification being responsive to an error condition in a target computing system, and the reconcile action being responsive to the alert notification, wherein the method supplies a client computing system and a target computing system, wherein the target computing system is in communication with the client computing system. The method further forms an alert notification responsive to an error condition detected in the target computing system, and generates a reconcile action responsive to the alert notification. The method provides the alert notification and the reconcile action to the client computing system. The client computing system returns a selected reconcile action, which is implemented by the target computing system, wherein that implementing step is performed without logging into said target computing system.

    摘要: For controlling power sequence in a blade center environment, a relationship component module creates a topology of interdependent relationships of devices in the blade center environment. The devices include server blades, storage blades, and switch modules. A sequence module defines a sequence of the devices in the blade center environment to power off and on based on the topology of interdependent relationships. The sequence includes an order of a first independent blade server, each dependent storage blade of the first independent blade server, and a second independent blade server. A monitor component module monitors a command from an Advanced Management Module (AMM) to regulate power for the devices in the blade center environment. The AMM regulates power within the blade center. A validation module validates that the command does not violate the interdependent relationships and the sequence of devices or else blocks the command if the command is not validated.
