Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are provided for managing operation of data processing systems positioned in a rack. To do so a first identification of a change in a health state of a power supply of a power shelf positioned in the rack may be made, the power shelf supplying power to the data processing systems. Based on the first identification and the change in the health state, a second identification that existing power limits on power consumption by the data processing systems are stale may be made. Based on the second identification, new power limits may be obtained for the data processing systems based on the change in the health state. The new power limits on the data processing systems may be enforced to facilitate continued provisioning of computer implemented services by the data processing systems.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide a password reset for a management controller, which is not exposed to the Internet. Upon receiving a request to reset the password, the management controller generates computer-readable information such as a barcode, where the computer-readable information indicates attributes of an information handling system associated with the management controller as well as a timestamp. A user can transmit the computer-readable information to a vendor application service via for example a mobile device that reads the computer-readable information. The vendor application service verifies the request and generates a temporary password from the timestamp and the attributes. Independently of the vendor application service, the management controller also generates the temporary password from the timestamp in the attributes. The vendor application service may then cause the temporary password to be sent to verified contact information.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, an Information Handling System (IHS) includes a host that is executed to manage deployment of a plurality of workspaces, and executable instructions to obtain an amount of energy consumed by one or more resources of the host, obtain workspace usage metrics of each of the workspaces, and determine, using the workspace usage metrics, a proportionate amount of energy used by each of the workspaces. The instructions can, using the determined proportionate amount of energy, determine an overall amount of energy used by each workspace by distributing the amount of energy used by each of the resources across each of the workspaces according to the proportionate amount of energy used by each of the workspaces.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide customers with a need-based warranty using a deep learning neural network. After categorizing, a customer need is mapped to a warranty type based on the SLA needs. Warranties may then be suggested based on customer need. In another embodiment, systems and methods detect an optimal warranty based on part failure and performance of a server. A mean time to resolve or replace can be minimized in future failure instances by comparing the derived replacement time with available warranty offerings to identify potential deviations and thereby recommend an optimal warranty from the available offerings. In a further embodiment, systems and methods identify and offer additional service contracts for vender services. A warranty proposer looks for warranty types that are emitted by a warranty-types analyzer and by a technical-support analyzer. The overlapping warranty offers are provided to customers.

Abstract: Custom-tailored warranties are provided with improved service level agreements (SLA) based upon an estimated turnaround time for service and/or parts. The turnaround time is calculated using an artificial intelligence or machine learning engine considering parameters such as the transit time from the nearest service centers and warehouses, the availability of service engineers at the service centers, and the availability of replacement parts in the warehouse. A custom-tailored warranty also may be offered for a specific customer-selected SLA if supported by the estimated turnaround time for the location. A warranty recommendation may be based on device location for data centers in multiple locations. A Location-Based Warranty Monitor (LBWM) provides fine-grained warranty suggestions and Un-bound Warranty Tokens (UWTs) can be bound to a system to assign a warranty with a desired. SLA.

Abstract: A software-defined infrastructure can identify and remediate an airflow deficiency scenario on a rack device. A rack device manager can be configured to discover rack devices and create a representation of their physical locations. The rack device manager can also be configured to periodically retrieve airflow metrics of the rack devices to calculate an estimated airflow for each rack device. The rack device manager can use the estimated airflows and the airflow metrics to generate a rack device classifier for each rack device. Using these rack device classifiers, the rack device manager can detect when rack devices are experiencing airflow deficiencies and attempt to automatically remediate such deficiencies.
