Abstract: Hardware management systems for disaggregated rack architectures in virtual server rack deployments are disclosed herein. An example apparatus to manage disaggregated physical hardware resources in a physical rack includes a hardware management system to discover disaggregated physical hardware resources in the physical rack and generate a listing of the disaggregated physical hardware resources, and a physical resource manager to generate a composed resource based on resources from the listing of the disaggregated physical hardware resources, the hardware management system to manage the composed resource.

Abstract: An example method to install a hardware management system on a management switch includes in response to a power-on event of a management switch, executing a boot loader on the management switch to boot an operating system on the management switch. The example method also includes obtaining from a virtual imaging appliance in communication with the management switch a uniform resource locator of a network-accessible location of installer software to install the hardware management system. The virtual imaging appliance is to configure a physical rack of hardware for use as a virtual server rack. The hardware management system is to manage the hardware for use in the virtual server rack.
