  • Method and system for platform independent fault management
    Patent number: 8504877
    Abstract: A method for fault management. The method includes generating, in firmware of a computer system, a physical resource inventory (PRI) of a plurality of hardware components of the computer system, wherein the PRI defines a hierarchy of the hardware components. The method further includes traversing, by an enumerator executing in a fault manager, the PRI to generate a topology of the plurality of hardware components. The topology is used for fault management of the computer system.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 31, 2011
    Date of Patent: August 6, 2013
    Assignee: Oracle America, Inc.
    Inventors: Scott W. Davenport, Tarik Pertev Soydan, Louis Yonlo Tsien
