Publication number: 20240134684Abstract: Technology described herein relates to management of operational execution by one or more plugins, services and/or consoles of a computing system. A method can comprise registering, by a conflict resolution manager (CRM) controller of a system, a subset of control components of a set of control components of the system, wherein the registering comprises logging operation capabilities of the subset of control components, ranking, by the CRM controller, respective control components of the subset, wherein the ranking is performed based on an operation comprised by the operation capabilities, and generating, by the CRM controller, a permission for performance of the operation by a selected control component of the subset having a highest rank determined by the ranking. The control components can comprise a plugin of, or to be installed at, at least one of the system or a management console of the system, which can be a computing system.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2022Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Rishi Mukherjee, Ravishankar Kanakapura N, Sudhir Vittal Shetty, Stephanos S.

Patent number: 11782810Abstract: Method and systems provide automated configuration of replaceable hardware components of a chassis comprising a plurality of IHSs (Information Handling Systems) and a plurality of storage devices that are configured to support demands of a specific computing solution designed for a particular computing task. The IHSs may be computing sleds and the storage devices may be storage sleds, where the sleds are coupled within bays of the chassis. Processes operating on the IHSs monitor for changes to settings related to the first computing solution. A chassis management controller detects updates to the replaceable hardware components that are coupled to the chassis and determines supported settings for detected new hardware components. Parameters for configuring the new hardware components for supporting the first computing solution are selected and used to configure the new hardware components.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2019Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: Dell Products, L.P.Inventors: Naman Goel, Ravikanth Chaganti, Ravishankar Kanakapura N, Harsha Naik

Patent number: 11307871Abstract: Method and systems support configuring components of a chassis comprising a plurality of IHSs (Information Handling Systems). A management controller of the chassis initiates a process for identifying a plurality of hardware and software capabilities of the chassis. Based on the identified capabilities, computing solutions, such as specialized computation and storage functions, supported by the chassis are determined. The computing solutions supported by the capabilities of the chassis are encoded, such as within a set of compatibility bits. Upon detecting updates to the hardware and software capabilities of the chassis, the encoded compatibility bits are used to determine compatibility of the updated capabilities with computing solutions supported by the chassis.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 2019Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: Dell Products, L.P.Inventors: Naman Goel, Ravikanth Chaganti, Ravishankar Kanakapura N, Harsha Naik
