In one or more embodiments, one or more information handling systems may comprise a Remote Access Controller (RAC) configured with a minimum number of built-in features and a private cloud server (PCS) communicatively coupled to the RAC and storing a set of telemetry services. The PCS can execute the telemetry services to monitor and manage telemetry operations of a plurality of servers. The PCS may receive a first set of telemetry data from one or more servers, receive outgoing telemetry traffic associated with the first set of telemetry data, determine one or more telemetry collection requirements and communicate a second set of telemetry data and communicate a second set of telemetry data to the external cloud server, wherein the second set of telemetry data communicated to the external cloud server contains less data than the first set of telemetry data and meets the one or more telemetry collection requirements.

System and method for telemetry streaming as a service

In one or more embodiments, a server may have a remote access controller (RAC) storing a BIOS image. A private cloud server (PCS) communicatively coupled to the RAC may scan the BIOS image. If the BIOS image is compromised, embodiments may access a centralized repository storing information about a plurality of versions of firmware in the server. If there is a previous version with a better performance, a payload for the previous version may be retrieved from a backup service and sent to the RAC. Embodiments may monitor and update a plurality of servers in parallel and rollback to any previous version (N−M) instead of the immediately preceding version (N−1).

System and method for centralizing a repository for virtual deployment

Systems and methods update firmware during authentication of a hardware component of an IHS (Information Handling System), where firmware updates are managed by a remote access controller that provides remote management of the IHS. The remote access controller calculates a measurement based on firmware loaded for use by a hardware component of the IHS. Based on the measurement, an integrity of the firmware loaded for use by the hardware component is validated against a reference signature. When the integrity of the firmware is not validated, the hardware component is quarantined. When the integrity of the firmware is successfully validated, the remote access controller determines whether a firmware update is required for the firmware loaded by the hardware component. When a firmware update is required, an integrity of the updated firmware is validated, the updated firmware is loaded by the hardware component and further initialization of the hardware component is allowed.

Systems and methods for updates during firmware authentication

Systems and methods are provided for supporting remote management of an IHS (Information Handling System). A first remote management command is received at an IHS. Managed hardware components of the IHS are identified that are configured by the first remote management command. While the first remote management command is pending, a mapping is maintained of the command and the managed hardware components configured by the command. A second remote management command is received that is related to a component of the IHS. Based on the maintained mapping, a determination is made whether the component of the second remote management command is configured by the pending first management command. When the component of the second remote management command is configured by the pending first management command, a notification of the pending first management command is appended to a response to the second management command.
