  • Patent number: 11620199
    Abstract: A system and method for identifying, analyzing, and repairing deviations in a power-on self-test routine (POST) of a computer system is disclosed. The computer system includes a basic input output system (BIOS) including a POST routine executed between power-on and hand off to an operating system. A memory stores a golden image POST code sequence. The controller and BIOS receive a sequence of POST codes from the execution of the POST routine. The sequence of POST codes is compared to the golden image POST code sequence. A deviation in the POST routine is identified based on at least one POST code of the sequence of the POST codes not matching the golden image POST code sequence. The identified deviation may be analyzed for further information in a message. The message may be used to recover from the deviation.

  • Publication number: 20220214917
    Abstract: A system and method for distributing tasks between computing devices in a rack. Each of the computing devices have hardware resources and is coupled to a management network. A rack management controller monitors the utilization of hardware resources by each of the computing devices. The rack management controller allocates performance of tasks, such as operating virtual machines, to some of the computing devices to maximize computing devices with substantially full hardware resource utilization. The rack management controller minimizes the allocation of tasks to computing devices with less than full hardware resource utilization. The rack management controller commands any idle computing devices to minimize power consumption.

  • Patent number: 10685121
    Abstract: What is disclosed is a system and method to secure a network device such as a server. The network device has a memory storing a static credential file. A basic input output system operates a security module that gathers an IP address of the router and an IP address of the network device, via a query to a network manager when power is enabled to the network device. The gathered IP addresses are compared with stored IP addresses in the static credential file. The operating system of the network device is prevented from booting if the IP addresses do not match. In addition, a baseboard management controller is operable to receive an encrypted credential file. The encrypted credential file is decrypted and compared with the static content file. The baseboard management controller shuts down power to the network device if the credential file does not match the static content file.

  • Patent number: 10360114
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for hardware recovery are disclosed. In some examples, a system can detect a hardware error and identify a system component associated with the hardware error. The system can then generate a request configured to trigger an operating system of the system to place the system in a particular operating state. The particular operating state can be determined based on a component type of the system component. The particular operating state can be a first sleep state when the component type is a peripheral component or a second sleep state when the component type is a processor, a memory, or a power supply. The second sleep state can result in a lower power resource consumption than the first sleep state. The system can generate an indication that the system component can be replaced without restarting the operating system.
