Abstract: A method and system writing a server BIOS image to a BIOS flash by a BMC is provided. The method includes receiving a Golden BIOS image within a BMC flash. The BMC flash is associated with the BMC. The method also includes determining that an active BIOS image within a BIOS flash is either a damaged BIOS image or a maliciously altered BIOS image. In response to a damaged or a maliciously altered BIOS image, the method includes overwriting the active BIOS image in the BIOS flash with the Golden BIOS.

Abstract: In some implementations, an IP address can be configured for a computing device using an out-of-band communication channel. For example, a system administrator can configure a system controller (e.g., baseband management controller) with an IP address using an out-of-band communication channel. In some implementations, the system controller can be configured with the IP address when the computing device is powered down. The system controller can store the IP address in memory associated with the system controller. In some implementations, an operating system of the computing device can be configured with an agent (e.g., process, application, utility) that will request the IP address from the system controller and configure the computing device to use the IP address. For example, the operating system agent can use various operating system commands to configure the IP address for the computing device based on the IP address received from the system controller.

Abstract: A system and method of updating device firmware on a rack server computer system using a network switch. The network switch receives a request to update the firmware of a device in the rack server computer system. The network switch determines the location of the device in the rack server system and transmits the firmware update to the device and commands the device to update its firmware using the firmware update transmitted by the switch. Alternatively, the network switch automatically detects a new device connected to the network switch in the rack server computer system. The network switch determines the identification of the new device, including its firmware, and determines if a newer version of the device firmware is available. The network switch obtains the newer version of the device firmware, transmits the firmware to the device, and commands the device to update its firmware with the newer version.

Abstract: A computer system and a method for setting basic input/output system (BIOS) are disclosed. The computer system comprises a remote computer and servers. The remote computer transmits a setting command. Each of the servers comprises a first management unit and a motherboard. The motherboard comprises a storage device and a processor. The storage device stores the BIOS. The processor executes the BIOS. The processor communicates with the first management unit to determine whether the BIOS configuration needs to be updated after the server rebooted. The processor updates the BIOS according to the setting command when the BIOS configuration must to be updated.

Abstract: In some implementations, a system controller of a computing device can be configured to obtain power supply unit (PSU) fan airflow direction information. The system controller is configured to retrieve t a pre-defined airflow direction of PSU fan, and to determine whether the current airflow direction of PSU fan is consistent with the retrieved pre-defined fan airflow direction. In some implementations, upon determining that the current airflow direction of PSU fan is inconsistent with the pre-defined fan airflow direction, the system controller can cause an indication device associated with the PSU to be toggled. The indication device indicates that the PSU fan has been incorrectly installed and notifies the technician that over-temperature fault can occur due to incorrect installment.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for early detection of fan failure in a computing device, such as a server. A management device located in the computing device or remote from the computing device can receive information about the fan duty and use the fan duty information to determine a safe fan speed below which future or imminent fan failure can be inferred. The management device can receive the current speed of the fan and compare it with the safe fan speed to determine if the fan is likely to fail, in which case the management device can direct the computing device to perform mitigation action and/or a maintenance warning can be sent. The maintenance warning can result in replacement of the failing or soon-to-fail fan.
