Abstract: According to an embodiment of the invention, a remote management device is integrated into a processing system, such as a filer or other storage server, and the remote management device and administrative data (such as console data) generated by the processing system are accessible even if the processing system becomes inoperable. The processing system includes a console port that outputs administrative data in the form of administrative data during system operation. The remote management device is accessible remotely, for example through a local area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN) such as the Internet, or a combination of networks. The remote management device intercepts the administrative data output by the console port and stores the data into memory on the remote management device.

Abstract: Provided is a method and system for protecting data transactions transmitted on an integrated circuit bus. Specifically, by transmitting data along with the complement of the data from one component to another component that are connected by the integrated circuit bus, the data and complemented data can be compared for errors. Exemplary errors include bit flips. Comparisons include logical operations, such as XOR, that determine if an error has occurred during the transmission of the data or complemented data on the integrated circuit bus.

Abstract: A processing system includes control circuitry to control the processing system, a remote management module to enable remote management of the processing system via a network, and an agent to operate as an intermediary between the remote management module and the control circuitry. The agent and the remote management module are configured to cooperatively implement an abstraction layer through which the agent and the remote management module communicate.

Abstract: A suspended or stuck condition of a serial bus controller is released by applying an artificial clock signal to the stuck bus controller in place of the normally applied clock signal. The artificial clock signal causes the stuck controller to advance in a communication transaction which was in progress when the stuck condition occurred, until a data signal is supplied at a logical level which permits the initiation of another transaction in accordance with the serial communication protocol of the bus. The ability to release the stuck condition avoids losing important data and other information that would be lost if the stuck condition was released by performing a reset of the stuck controller or the component to which it is connected.
