  • Patent number: 8175994
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for automatically performing remediation operations on a plurality of information handling system (IHS) resources. Survey information related to a user of IHS resources is collected and processed to generate survey information. IHS resources used by the user are determined and associated configuration and operational information is collected and processed to generate imported information. The survey information and the imported information are then processed to generate state analysis information, which is then compared to a plurality of health baseline information. The results of the comparison operations are used to determine individual IHS resources not conforming to predetermined health baseline parameters. If an individual IHS resource does not conform to the predetermined health baseline parameters, then a remediation operation is automatically performed on the individual IHS resource.
