A system includes a plurality of servers in a server rack and a plurality of baseboard management controllers (BMCs), each associated with a respective server from the plurality of servers. The system further includes a rack management controller (RMC). A first BMC of a first server determines component types of hardware components in the first server, determines a quantity of each of the component types in the first server, determines a first weight information of the first server based on the component types and the quantity of each of the component types, and sends to the RMC the first weight information. The RMC determines a weight of other components in the server rack, and calculates a loaded rack weight of the server rack based on the first weight information and the weight of other components.

System and method for automatically determining server rack weight

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for reducing load by filtering out broadcast messages. In some embodiments, a system may receive a broadcast message at a device at a first time. The system can monitor the device until a second time when a pre-determined number of broadcast messages have been received at the device. Based on a difference between the first time and the second time, the system can determine a filtering time duration. The system can then filter out further broadcast messages received at the device after the second time for a period of time that is equivalent to the filtering time duration.

Method for reducing load by filtering out broadcast messages

A computer system comprising an embedded system and a main computer system is provided. The embedded system comprises a memory device and a virtual firmware hub. The memory device is for storing a boot code of the main computer system. The virtual firmware hub is connected to the main computer system. The virtual firmware hub is for reading the boot code. As the main computer system is booted, the main computer system inputs a loading command to the virtual firmware hub. The virtual firmware hub reads the boot code stored in the memory device according to the loading command and outputs the boot code to the main computer system accordingly.

Computer system and boot code accessing method thereof

An audio data transmission system applied in a blade PC for connecting a main system unit of a PC blade with an external audio device is provided. The audio data transmission system comprises a peripheral agent device, a peripheral gateway and a connection management unit. The peripheral agent device is connected to the main system unit. The peripheral gateway is connected to the external audio device and is for providing an identification code. In response to the identification code, the connection management unit pairs the peripheral agent device with the peripheral gateway to establish a communication link between the peripheral agent device and the peripheral gateway for transmitting an audio data.
