Abstract: The present description concerns a method of controlling at least one switch (TH), including: the reception of signals (S3-i) having between one another at least one phase shift representative of a desired state of said at least one switch; the obtaining, from said signals, of a value (Si) representative of the desired state; and the application of the representative value to said at least one switch.

Abstract: The present description concerns a method of controlling at least one switch (TH), including: the reception of signals (S3-i) having between one another at least one phase shift representative of a desired state of said at least one switch; the obtaining, from said signals, of a value (S1) representative of the desired state; and the application of the representative value to said at least one switch.

Abstract: A method of updating a computer system to a qualified state prior to installation of an operating system (OS) is disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment, a method of updating an information handling system to a qualified state prior to installation of an OS including performing an inventory of the information handling system for installed system components in a pre-installation environment. The method further including automatically determining a compatibility relationship between the installed system components and available drivers. The method further including recommending an alternative driver based on the compatibility relationship. The method further including updating drivers in the information handling system such that the alternative driver installs on the information handling system to bring the information handling system to a qualified state based on the acceptance of the recommendation.

Abstract: A remote deployment manager infers a target information handling system state from status information discovered from the target information handling system and applies the inferred target information handling system state to validate actions performed to the target information handling system. A discovery module discovers status information to which an inferred state engine applies state calculation rules to infer a target state without having to rely on tasks performed to the target. An action. validator applies the inferred state to actions requested from a user interface to ensure that only valid actions are communicated to a target information handling system. Valid actions may include remote commands for RAID configuration, capture of an image, deployment of a captured image or preassignment of an image to an undiscovered target information handing system.
