  • Publication number: 20230096716
    Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods for setting virtual machines (“VMs”) to desired configurations while the virtual machines are running. In one example, a user can select a VM and a desired configuration. An agent can then set an attribute of the virtual machine to indicate that on guest operation system (“OS”) reboot of the VM, the VM will enter BIOS mode. The agent can also store the desired configuration in the database based on authenticating the user. When the VM reboots at a future time, the attribute can cause the VM to enter BIOS setup. The agent can be notified and can retrieve the desired configuration from a database using an identifier for the VM. Then the agent can apply the desired configuration to the VM during BIOS setup with a system process that does not require further user authentication.

  • Publication number: 20210079711
    Abstract: A latch and lock assembly includes a lever pivotable between a latched and unlatched position. A first actuator selectively moves a locking tab between a locked and unlocked position. In the locked position, the locking tab blocks pivotable movement of the lever from the latched position to the unlatched position. In the unlocked position, the locking tab allows pivotable movement of the lever from the latched position to the unlatched position. A second actuator selectively rotates a door opening tab between a first and second position when the locking tab is in the unlocked position is included. When the door opening tab is in the first position the lever is in a latched position, and when the door opening tab is rotated from the first position to the second position, the door opening tab abuts the lever and urges the lever from the latched position to the unlatched position.

  • Patent number: 9794871
    Abstract: A provisioning server may select a new service provider to provide network connectivity to a network-enabled device in response to a determination that the device has moved to a new region that is different than a home region. The provisioning server may automatically determine whether to cause the device to switch service providers with little or no input by a user or an administrator of the device. The provisioning server may select a new service provider from various available service providers based at least partly on a profile associated with the device. A provisioning server may enable access by the device to the selected service provider by causing an update to an embedded SIM of the device. In this way, the provisioning server may update connectivity of the device to a new service provider with little or no human input, thereby simplifying management of the device.
