Abstract: A computer server architecture and diagnostic framework for testing same is described. The diagnostic infrastructure consists of various logical modules present on both service processor-side and platform-side regions of a server. These modules work together to present a modular, extensible yet unitary diagnostic framework. The invention permits dynamic operation of information resources, and extensibility when/if expansion is needed. The server architecture includes an OS independent, custom ASIC and processors configured in a 4-way geometry which permits scalable expansion up to a 16-way configuration geometry within a SMP programming model. The server architecture is capable of integration with third party management frameworks, for example, SNMP and CIM, and is modularly scalable, i.e., offers a “one to many” management capability.
