    Abstract: A server cluster including a network switch and multiple server nodes is provided. The network switch is connected to an external network. Each server node includes a network port, a network chip and a control unit. The network port is connected to the network switch via a cable. The network chip detects the cable to obtain a connection state with the external network at the server node after the network switch is started, and accordingly outputs a connection state signal. The control unit turns on or shuts down the server node according to the connection state signal and an on/off state of the server node.

    Abstract: A method for automatic clock configurations is performed by a system having a host and a peripheral device. The host indicates on a first general-purpose input/output (GPIO) of a peripheral interface connecting the host and the peripheral device, whether the host supports a first clock configuration. The peripheral device receives from the first GPIO whether the host supports the first clock configuration. The peripheral device selects, in response to the host supporting the first clock configuration, use of a local clock of the peripheral device. The peripheral device selects, in response to the host not supporting the first clock configuration, use of a common clock of the host.

    Abstract: A controller in a server system can determine whether to share a network connection of the server system. In response to determining to share the network connection, the controller can disable a dedicated network connection between the controller and a network interface controller (NIC) in the server system, enable a first shared network connection between the controller and a computing module in the server system, and enable a second shared network connection between the computing module and the NIC. In response to determining not to share the network connection, the controller can enable the dedicated network connection between the controller and the NIC.

    Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to thermal management in a multi-node computing device. The present technology discloses techniques that can receive multiple control signals from multiple computing nodes, each of the control signals being associated with a fan duty request, which is a request for a fan duty needed to keep a related computing node operating within a predetermined temperature range. The logic controller can rank the received control signals and select a control signal that requests a highest fan duty; lastly, the logic controller can cause multiple cooling fans to operate at the selected highest fan duty.

    Abstract: A system and device for expanding accessible memory of a processor is provided. An interposer is coupled to the processor and a memory module. The interposer is coupled to a first connection and a second connection. The interposer includes a memory controller circuit. The memory controller circuit receives signals from the processor, using the first connection, and transmits the received signals to the memory module, using the second connection. The interposer expands memory access without an unnecessary second processor.

    Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to a universal debug design which involves integrating a debug controller and a debug card with display together into a single debug design. Debug codes, such as power-on self-test (POST) codes and other error codes, are generated by various subsystems of a server-related system. The codes are transmitted to a controller, which stores the codes in memory. In some embodiments, a multiplexer outputs one debug code from the multitude of received codes, based on a user or event selecting which desired debug code should be displayed. In some embodiments, a decoder converts and sends the LED display signals to a debug card, which displays the debug code on a 7-segment LED display.
