  • Patent number: 9983791
    Abstract: A system management controller includes a processing module and a removable storage device interface. The removable storage device interface is connectable to a removable storage device. The removable storage device pre-stores a controller configuration file. In response to connection of the removable storage device interface to the removable storage device, the processing module accesses the controller configuration file from the removable storage device and configures the system management controller according to data in the controller configuration file.

  • Patent number: 9501528
    Abstract: Once a request is received from a common information model (CIM) Object Manager (CIMOM), a CIM server may respond quickly and efficiently by utilizing data which is stored in advance of the request from the CIMOM. This previously stored copy of soon-to-be-requested data may be stored in anticipation of receiving the request from the CIMOM for the data, and may be quickly returned to the CIMOM upon receiving the request for it. A CIM profile provider may generate this pre-stored data for a device in order to respond to the request, and a CIM caching provider may receive the data, store the data, receive the request for the data, and provide the data in response to the request, according to one embodiment.

  • Patent number: 9081635
    Abstract: A data processing system includes data storage that stores an operating system and an application that performs a security operation and a processor communicatively coupled with the data storage and a random number generator separate from the operating system. The processor executes the operating system and the application. The processor receives a random number from the random number generator and provides the received random number to the application for use in the security operation.
