Abstract:
An enclosure is associated with a network address. A management processor of a server device within the enclosure and an enclosure processor of a management mechanism within the enclosure share the network address. A networking switch processor of a networking switch within the enclosure is to route the packet to the enclosure processor, or directly to the management processor without the packet passing through the management mechanism.
Abstract:
Example implementations relate to power consumption level adjustment of a computing device. For example, an implementation includes a computing cell and a power subsystem housed in a chassis. A power manager of the power subsystem is to assert an emergency brake signal to a power controller to the computing cell in response to a detection of a power output reduction, to transmit power consumption information to the power controller, and to assert a power restore signal to the power controller. The power controller is to transition a power consumption level of the computing cell from a first level to a second level based on the emergency brake signal, to transition the power consumption level from the second level to a third level based on the power consumption information, and to transition the power consumption level from the third level to the first level based on the power restore signal.
Abstract:
Sharing firmware among a plurality of agents including a plurality of central processing units (CPUs) on a node is described. In an example, a computing node includes: a bus; a non-volatile memory, coupled to the bus, to store firmware for the plurality of agents; a power sequencer to implement a power-up sequence for the plurality of CPUs; a plurality of power control state machines respectively controlling states of the plurality of CPUs based on output of the power sequencer; and a bus controller to selectively couple the plurality of agents to the non-volatile memory based on state of the plurality of power control state machines.
Abstract:
A method for monitoring computing resources of a cartridge is described herein. The method may include receiving, via the microcontroller, data associated with the computing components of the cartridge. The method may include providing, via the microcontroller, the data based on the monitoring to a management controller that is remote from the cartridge. The method may include analyzing, via the management controller, the data received. The method may include communicating, via the management controller, operational signals based on the analysis to the microcontroller in response to data received.
Abstract:

The facility engine to communicate with a facility control system. The control engine to provide an interface between the electronic engine and the facility engine to unify control of the electronic control system and the facility control system.
Abstract:
A method for disabling counterfeit cartridge operation is provided. The method includes detecting a cartridge in a blade enclosure. The method includes checking authentication credentials of the cartridge. The method includes determining the cartridge to be counterfeit. The method includes disabling the cartridge in response to determining the cartridge to be counterfeit.
Abstract:
A system and method for zoneable power regulation are provided herein. A system for zoneable power regulation may include a power supply, a blade system, and a controller. One or more blade servers consumes power from the power supply. The controller groups each of the one or more blade servers into one or more zones, and power is consumed by each zone according to a power capping strategy, the power capping strategy including power regulation using a device and by asserting a duty cycle.
