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.

Management of device based on CPU temperature during hibernation state

In one aspect, an example methodology implementing the disclosed techniques can include, by a baseboard management controller (BMC), responsive to a virtual console of a server being launched on a client device via the BMC, collecting one or more environment parameters of the client device and collecting one or more environmental parameters of the server. The method can also include, by the BMC, determining an appropriate display configuration for the server based on an analysis of the one or more environment parameters of the client device and the one or more environmental parameters of the server and configuring a display configuration of the server in accordance with the determined appropriate display configuration.

System and method for configuring a server display

An apparatus comprises a processing device configured to identify, for a modular server, blade servers installed in a first subset of slots of a chassis of the modular server and storage servers installed in a second subset of the slots. The processing device is also configured to determine, for the modular server, assignment of storage devices of the storage servers installed in the second subset of the slots to respective ones of the first subset of the slots in which the blade servers are installed. The processing device is further configured to detect movement of a given blade server from a first to a second slot in the first subset of the slots, and to dynamically reassign at least a subset of the storage devices from the first to the second slot responsive to validating a configuration of the given blade server moved from the first to the second slot.

Dynamic assignment of storage devices responsive to movement of blade servers among slots of a chassis of a modular server

Technology described herein is generally directed towards an efficient process to selectively boot (e.g., initialize, re-boot, re-initialize and/or the like) one or more nodes of a server node system based on contextual information that can be automatically acquired. In an embodiment, a system can comprise a processor, and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, can facilitate performance of operations. The operations can comprise monitoring operational activity of a node of a software-defined object storage system. The operations can comprise, in response to occurrence of a negative activity event determined based on a result of the monitoring, determining whether a node reboot of the node is to be implemented. The operations can comprise, based on the operational activity analyzed, setting a reboot flag indicating that the node reboot is to comprise a reboot of less than all components of the node.
