An information handling system may include a processor and a management controller configured to provide out-of-band management facilities for management of the information handling system, the management controller further configured to, in response to a triggering event for collecting a hardware inventory, collect identifying information for information handling resources of the information handling system and a location for each of the information handling resources, order the identifying information in accordance with a schema for ordering the identifying information, concatenate the identifying information into a string in accordance with the schema, generate a signature from the string, compare the signature to an existing inventory signature for the information handling system, and generate a notification in response to the signature mismatching the existing inventory signature.

Systems and methods for inventory collection in a management controller

Methods and systems for managing data processing system are disclosed. A data processing system may include one or more hardware and/or software components. The operation of the data processing system may depend on the operation of these components. To manage the operation of the data processing system, future failures of the hardware components may be predicted and used as a basis for predicted services to reduce the threat of the predicted component failures. To manage performance of the predicted services, the predicted services may be scheduled for performance. To schedule performance of the predicted services, limitations on availability of service professionals that may complete the predicted services may be taken into account.

System and method for proactive management of components based on service availability

A method and system for contraindicating firmware and driver updates. Specifically, the disclosed method and system entail discerning whether installation of a hardware device firmware and/or device driver update, targeting a hardware device on a host device, would succeed or fail given a set of features (or indicators) reflective of the current host device state and metadata respective to the hardware device update. Further, the determination may employ predictive machine learning techniques.

Method and system for contraindicating firmware and driver updates

A method, an information handling system (IHS) and a data center location system for determining physical locations of devices in a data center. The method includes generating an initial grouping of servers into a plurality of racks based on the at least one of a MAC address or IP address. Each server in a first rack is paired with each other server in communication with a switch aggregator to generate server pairs. The server pairs are transmitted to the respective servers. Each of the servers are triggered to measure and transmit received signal strength indication (RSSI) values for its respective server pairs. Positions of the servers in rows are determined based on the RSSI values. An intermediate grouping of the servers in rows is generated based on the determined positions.
