Example implementations relate to automatic diagnostic mode to identify a potential cause of a boot problem of a system. In an example, the automatic diagnostic mode iteratively isolates subsystems of the system in coordination with a baseboard management controller. For each iteration of subsystem isolation, a system boot is executed while a subsystem is isolated. The system boot is monitored against a watchdog timer of the baseboard management controller to determine if the system boot is successful. If the system boot is successful, the isolated subsystem is marked as a potential cause of the boot problem of the system. If the system boot is unsuccessful, the automatic diagnostic mode continues to iteratively isolate the subsystems.

Automatic diagnostic mode to determine potential cause of boot problem

Examples disclosed herein relate to using a programmable logic device to perform a recovery operation on non-volatile storage devices. In response to receiving an indication to perform recovery, multiple storage devices are set to a predetermined value by the PLD. Recovery of the storage devices is to begin based on the predetermined value setting.
