Abstract: Techniques for capturing and deploying the operating system of a computing device are disclosed. An example method includes creating a file that contains settings of an operating system of a source computer and storing the file in storage on the source computer. The method also includes copying an image of the operating system and the file containing the settings of the operating system and deploying the image to one or more target computers.

Abstract: A system and method of managing virtual link state includes receiving, at a first device, a first status update associated with the virtual link from a second device. The first status update includes a first management status value (RM) and a first operational status value (RO). The system and method further includes determining a second management status value (LM) associated with the first device, determining a second operational status value (LO) based on the first status update and the RM, transmitting a second status update for the virtual link to the second device, the second status update including the LM and the LO, and determining a state of the virtual link based on the RM, the RO, the LM, and the LO. The first device is configured to be coupled to the second device using a physical network link partitioned into a plurality of first virtual links including the virtual link.

Abstract: A system is provided, the system includes a base computer having operating system (OS) settings and Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) settings. The system also includes a plurality of managed computers. An OS image file having the OS settings and the BIOS settings is transferred from the base computer to the managed computers for configuring the managed computers.
