If microcontroller firmware is corrupted, then an information handling system checks an inlet temperature. If the inlet temperature is within a temperature range, then the system powers on a baseboard management controller and recovers the microcontroller firmware.

Microcontroller firmware crash recovery

A method comprises analyzing operational data corresponding to at least one processing unit of a device, and deriving a threshold processing unit temperature for initiation of a hibernation state of the device based at least in part on the analyzing. In the method, the temperature of the at least one processing unit is monitored, and a determination is made whether the temperature of the at least one processing unit has reached the threshold processing unit temperature. The hibernation state of the device is initiated responsive to determining that the temperature of the at least one processing unit has reached the threshold processing unit temperature. A command to initiate the hibernation state is transmitted over an out-of-band communication channel.
