Abstract: In an example embodiment, a framework is provided that provides a secure mechanism to limit misuse of licensed applications. Specifically, a mutual handshake is established, using existing properties of a requesting application, and wraps objects with dynamic parameters, such as a current timestamp, to perform masking, hashing, and encryption for the handshake.

Abstract: Interaction with different remote cloud drives is achieved utilizing a drive engine comprising a browsing component and a file manager. The browsing component receives from a consumer, a request to perform an action (e.g., upload; download) with a particular cloud drive. In response to the request, the browsing component retrieves a directory from the cloud drive. The browsing component generates a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) object including the directory, a placeholder, and a parameter, communicating same to the consumer. The file manager in turn receives from the consumer, the JSON object including selected directory information (e.g., upload destination folder; file for download). The file manager fills in the placeholder with a value. Based upon the value, the file manager communicates an action request to the cloud drive. In response, the file manager receives an action output (e.g., upload confirmation; downloaded content) from the remote storage, forwarding same to the consumer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for utilizing non-RAM memory to implement a cloud storage system. An embodiment operates by receiving a request from an on-premises computer system to securely access a cloud drive by receiving an object specific template for an object. Based on the object specific template, an object specific plugin is selected, wherein the object specific plugin is configured to provide a connection to a cloud-based repository to obtain real time data for the object. An instance of the object is generated and communicated to a cloud plugin, wherein the cloud plugin is configured to communicate to a specific cloud drive through an HTTP client and further upload the instance of the object to the specific cloud drive.

Abstract: An Information Handling System (IHS) includes multiple hardware devices, and a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) in communication with the hardware devices. The BMC includes executable code to cause the BMC to receive a message associated with a non-registered hardware device that is not registered to be managed by the BMC in which the message formatted according to a native protocol of the BMC. The code further causes the code to transmit the message to a device plugin associated with the non-registered hardware device in which the device plugin comprises custom instructions that, upon execution by a system processor, cause the IHS to convert the message into a protocol associated with the non-registered hardware device, and forward the converted message to the non-registered hardware device using the protocol of the non-registered hardware device.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a network interface device configured to provide indications of faults on the network interface device, a baseboard management controller agent configured to receive the indications, and a baseboard management controller coupled to a management system. The management system mitigates the faults on the network interface device. The network interface device further detects a fault on the network interface device and provides an indication to the baseboard management controller agent in response to detecting the fault. The baseboard management controller agent further receives the indication from the network interface device, receives an identification of the management system from the baseboard management controller, and provides a second indication to the management system based upon the identification.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a service module that may detect an action performed on a passthrough device, invoke an application programming interface on a hypervisor, receive a response to the action on the passthrough device from the hypervisor, and push management information to a management controller. The hypervisor may detect the passthrough device, proxy an operating system call associated with the action to a guest operating system of the virtual machine over the application programming interface, and transmit the response received from the guest operating system to the service module. The guest operating system may echo the operating system call on a virtual machine, and proxy the response to the operating system call to the hypervisor.

Abstract: Support is provided for remote monitoring and management of non-standard devices of an IHS (Information Handling System) that are not supported by a remote management interface, such as the Redfish management interface. The IHS may be configured for remote management of a non-standard device as part of the manufacture of the IHS. Software for management of the non-standard device is validated against a checksum stored to the IHS during its manufacture to confirm the software for managing the non-standard device has not been altered. If the software is validated, the software is used to initialize a plugin for management of the non-standard device. Data collected by the plugin from monitoring of the non-standard device is provided to a remote access controller of the IHS and the remote access controller issues commands to the non-standard device via the plugin.

The dynamic devices of the IHS are identified and the type of a dynamic device is determined based on operations implemented by the re-programmable logic circuitry of that dynamic device. The dynamic device is enrolled for management by a remote access controller of the IHS based on its determined type. Messages are registered for management of the dynamic device, where the messages are selected based on its determined type. Remote management of the dynamic device is initiated using the registered messages. Any programming that changes the type of the dynamic device of the dynamic device is detected. If a change is detected, the dynamic device is enrolled for remote management using updated messages based on its updated type.
