摘要:
An information handling system is set forth which includes a fully connected 4S topology that can also be populated with two processors and two link modules (e.g., two passive “slugs”) to implement a fully connected 2S topology. More specifically, the link module is a printed circuit board that implements a loopback connection between certain links of the architecture. In certain embodiment, the link module includes no electrical components. The link module merely includes a set of electrical connections (e.g., copper traces) connecting pads (e.g., gold plated pads) on a thick printed circuit board (PCB) dielectric material that is shaped to fit the processor socket. The link module is used to carry user data when the information handling system is configured in a 2S topology. The link module includes proper lane assignment that allows the module to be passive without performance reduction.

摘要:
A method for maintaining a continuous authenticated session in an information handling system including first and second chassis management controllers (CMCs) is provided. The first CMC receives user authentication information from a user, authenticates the user for a communication session based on the received user authentication information, generates session information regarding the communication session based at least on the received user authentication information, and stores the session information in memory accessible to the second CMC. Upon a failover from the first CMC to the second CMC, the second CMC automatically accesses the session information from the memory and uses the accessed session information to continue the communication session.
