Abstract: An information handling system includes a first memory and a baseboard management controller. The first memory stores a first firmware partition and a second firmware partition. The baseboard management controller includes a second memory. The baseboard management controller begins execution of a DM-Verity daemon, and performs periodic patrol reads of the first firmware partition. The baseboard management controller detects one or more block failures in the first firmware partition, and stores information associated with the one or more block failures in a message box of the second memory. In response to the entire first firmware partition being scanned, the baseboard management controller switches a boot partition from the first firmware partition to the second firmware partition, and initiates a reboot of the information handling system.

Abstract: A management system for an information handling system includes a memory device and a management controller. The memory device includes a primary firmware image and a backup firmware image. The management controller boots the management system. The boot of the management system includes a read of a first block at an offset within the primary firmware image. The management controller further determines that the read of the first block had a first read error, and reboots the management system in response to determining that the read of the first block had the first read error. The reboot of the management system includes a read of a second block at the offset within the backup firmware image.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to configuring a managed device. For example, configuration of a managed device may be performed by a services controller. The services controller may comprise a processing resource and a memory resource storing machine readable instructions to cause the processing resource to perform a number of actions. For instance, the services controller may manage configuration of a network using a hierarchical configuration model. The services controller may define a plurality of configuration elements for each of a plurality of managed devices in the hierarchical configuration model, where configuration elements shared among the plurality of managed devices are assigned a same setting from the services controller, and the configuration elements assigned by the services controller are customizable by each of the plurality of managed devices.

Abstract: A job processing method includes dividing a job into sub-jobs. Each sub-job is rendered into a device ready format. A message is communicated to a device. The communicating is timed in accordance with a completion of the rendering of a first of the sub-jobs. Following a receipt of a response to the message from the device, the rendered first sub-job is streamed to the device followed by the remainder of the rendered sub jobs.
