  • Systems and methods for management controller management of key encryption key
    Patent number: 10523427
    Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a management controller configured to provide management-domain management of an information handling system may include a processor and a key management utility embodied in non-transitory computer-readable media. The key management utility may be configured to issue one or more commands to a cryptoprocessor for storing and sealing a key encryption key on the cryptoprocessor, wherein the key encryption key is for decrypting a media encryption key for encrypting and decrypting data stored to a storage resource of a host domain of the information handling system. The key management utility may also be configured to issue one or more commands to the cryptoprocessor for unsealing and retrieving the key encryption key from the cryptoprocessor.

  • System and method for recovery from uncorrectable bus errors in a teamed NIC configuration
    Patent number: 8392751
    Abstract: A method for recovery from uncorrectable errors in an information handling system including an operating system (OS) and one or more network interface cards (NICs) is provided. The method may include detecting an uncorrectable error; determining whether the uncorrectable error is isolated to a particular NIC; determining whether the particular NIC is teamed with one or more other NICs; and notifying the OS of a successful recovery from the uncorrectable error if it is determined that (a) the uncorrectable error is isolated to a particular NIC, and (b) the particular NIC is teamed with one or more other NICs.
