Abstract: Systems and methods for reducing problems and disadvantages associated with traditional approaches to providing accessibility and redundancy for access controller storage media are provided. A method for providing accessibility for storage media of an access controller in an information handling system may include: (i) emulating the storage media such that the storage media appears to an operating system executing on the information handling system as storage media locally attached to the information handling system; (ii) mounting the storage media such that data may be communicated between the storage media and a processor integral to the access controller; (iii) mounting a portion of a network-attached storage remote to the information handling system such that data may be communicated between the portion of the network-attached storage and the processor; and (iv) maintaining redundancy between the storage media and the portion of network-attached storage in accordance with a redundancy policy.

Abstract: A DIMM includes a DRAM device and a non-volatile memory device. The DIMM is configured to determine that first data stored on the DRAM device is modified data and that second data stored on the DRAM device is unmodified data, and perform a save data operation to transfer the data from the DRAM device to the non-volatile memory device, wherein the save data operation comprises transferring the first data and not transferring the second data.

Abstract: A system and method for providing a power supply dual remote sense. A power supply with a positive remote sense input is coupled to first and second load positions. The load positions are each coupled to a pull-down circuit to provide first and second voltages, respectively, to the inputs of the pull-down circuit. The pull-down circuit output is coupled to the positive remote sense input of the power supply. The voltage level of the pull-down circuit output is no greater than either of the first or second voltages provided at its inputs.
