Abstract: A replacement node replaces a failed node and a baseboard management controller (BMC) for the replacement node generates a nonce code that is accessible to an authenticated user. An edge management node receives the nonce code from the user and sends a maintenance token to a BMC of a peer node in an edge cluster, wherein the peer nodes BMCs within the cluster are in a BMC federation that included the failed node BMC and have access to a BMC configuration for the failed node. The management node sends the token and the nonce code to the replacement node BMC for authentication of the token. The peer node BMC sends the token received from the management node to the replacement node BMC for authentication of the peer node BMC. The authenticated peer node BMC may then deploy the BMC configuration to the replacement node BMC.

Abstract: Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) can be used to interrogate a surface of a sample such as a layered semiconductor structure. The SHG based sample interrogation systems may simultaneously collect different polarization components of the SHG signal at a time to provide different types of information. SHG imaging systems can provide SHG images or maps of the distribution of SHG signals over a larger area of a sample. Some such SHG imaging systems employ multiple beams and multiple detectors to capture SHG signals over an area of the sample. Some SHG imaging systems employ imaging optics to image the sample onto a detector array to form SHG images.
