摘要: A baseboard management controller in a multi-processor system may perform operations including: causing, during a first time period, the system to operate in a partitioned state with a first partitioned node including a first subset of components of the system and a second partitioned node including a second subset of components of the system, wherein the first and second partitioned nodes are independently operable nodes having their own operating systems, and wherein the first partitioned node boots from a first boot drive that is included in the first subset; causing, during a second time period, the system to operate in a unified state with a single unified node including components from both the first and second subsets of components, wherein the single unified node has its own operating system; and causing the first boot drive to be inaccessible to the second partitioned node and the single unified node.

摘要: A baseboard management controller in a multi-processor system may perform operations including: identifying a partitioning mode (partitioned state or unified state) to implement on the multi-processor system having first and second central processing units (CPUs) located on a single motherboard; accessing, in response to the partitioned state, a first partitioned node configuration (P1C) for a first partitioned node (P1) and a second partitioned node configuration (P2C) for a second partitioned node (P2), wherein P1C identifies a first firmware interface level (F1L) and a first operating system to be used by P1, and wherein P2C identifies a second firmware interface level (F2L) and a second operating system to be used by P2; and causing the first CPU to load a first firmware interface having the identified F1L identified in the P1C and causing the second CPU to load a second firmware interface having the F2L identified in the P2C.

摘要: A system includes a partitionable multi-processor motherboard that has multiple central processing units, wherein the multi-processor motherboard may be configured to operate as a single unified node or configured to operate as multiple independent partitioned nodes. The system further comprises a single power button that is accessible to a user, wherein the single power button generates an output signal while being pressed, and an integrated circuit installed on the motherboard and connected to receive the output signal from the power button, wherein the integrated circuit stores a first button press gesture definition associated with selection of a first partitioned node, a second button press gesture definition associated with selection of a second partitioned node, and a third button press gesture definition associated with sequencing power to the selected one of the first or second partitioned nodes.

摘要: A method includes establishing a WebSocket connection between an on-premises WebSocket application hosted on a first on-premises compute node and an off-premises WebSocket application hosted on a first off-premises compute node, wherein the first on-premises compute node is in an on-premises network having a firewall that prevents the first off-premises compute node from initiating a connection with the first on-premises compute node, and wherein the on-premises WebSocket application hosted on the first on-premises compute node initiates the establishing of the WebSocket connection with the off-premises WebSocket application hosted on the first off-premises compute node. The method further includes sending a message from a client application hosted on a second off-premises compute node to a server application hosted on a second on-premises compute node through the WebSocket connection, wherein the second off-premises compute node initiates the sending of the message to the second on-premises compute node.

摘要: A method for detecting identity theft or identity change in managed computing systems is disclosed. An apparatus and computer program product also perform the functions of the method. The method includes identifying that a unique identifier of a first computing device assigned a first IP address matches a unique identifier of a second computing device assigned a second IP address and, in response to identifying that the unique identifier of the first computing device matches the unique identifier of the second computing device, sending a test message to the first computing device using the first IP address. The method includes sending an alert of a possible malicious event in response to receiving a response to the test message and sending an alert of a possible misconfiguration in response to a failure to receive a response to the test message.

摘要: A computer-implemented method includes identifying a plurality of adapter modules of a particular adapter module type that are installed in a plurality of slots of a single host computer, and identifying, for each of the identified adapter modules, a slot of the plurality of slots in which the adapter module is installed. The method may further includes accessing, for each identified slot, a predetermined relative thermal efficiency value for operation of an adapter module of the particular adapter module type in a particular slot, and controlling, for one or more of the identified adapter modules, the operation of the identified adapter module based on the predetermined relative thermal efficiency value for the slot in which the identified adapter module is installed. A computer program product may also include program instructions that are executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform the method.

摘要: A computer program product includes program instructions executable by a central processing unit (CPU) of a baseboard management controller (BMC) of a server to cause the BMC CPU to receive a message instructing the BMC to cause a host CPU on the server to run network diagnostics on a host network. The BMC CPU then instructs the host CPU to boot from a bootable image stored on a data storage device hosted by the BMC CPU and run a network diagnostic utility included with the bootable image to monitor network traffic on the host network physically connected to the server. In an alternative, the message instructs the BMC CPU to run network diagnostics on the host network. The BMC CPU then accesses and runs the network diagnostic utility to monitor and analyze traffic on the host network through a connection between the BMC and a host NIC on the server.
