The present disclosure relates to a distributed console server system. The system may have a server and a software module loaded onto the server for communications with a plurality of remote devices within a data center. A remote serial port unit may be included which is in communication with the server and which is controlled in part by the server and the software module. The remote serial port unit may be in communication with the plurality of remote devices. The remote serial port unit may include at least one of a first module including a plurality of RJ45 ports, or a second module including a plurality of USB ports.

System and method for distributed console server architecture

A data center infrastructure management (DCIM) system having an infrastructure control fabric (ICF) subsystem for enabling a manager component of an independent computing device to communicate directly with the DCIM system. The DCIM system, in one embodiment, may have a manageability subsystem engine for monitoring data being transmitted from the independent computing device. A domain model may be included that has an extension relating to information on the independent computing device. A services server may be used which provides a shared services infrastructure layer. The ICF subsystem may have components located in each of the manageability subsystem engine, the domain model, on the services server, and in the manager component of the independent computing device, to enable the independent computing device to directly query the DCIM system to obtain at least one of real time power, cooling and space information that is useful for the independent computing device to know before at least one of initiating an operation or continuing with an operation.
