An apparatus comprises an electronic equipment chassis comprising a housing and at least one lid, the housing comprising a control panel with a first set of one or more status indicators. The apparatus also comprises at least one latch configured for securing the at least one lid to the housing, the at least one latch comprising a second set of one or more status indicators. The apparatus further comprises a processing device configured to determine status information for electronic equipment housed in the electronic equipment chassis, the status information characterizing whether at least one of opening and removing the at least one lid is safe to perform at a given time, and controlling, based at least in part on the determined status information, at least one of the first set of indicators and at least one of the second set of indicators.

An information handling system bay accepts plural communication carriers having storage communication support, such as in compliance with OCP3.0. The communication carrier has a support structure to support processing components, such as a network interface controller coupled to a printed circuit board, and coupled within the bay by a latch having a member extending from one end to engage the bay housing and latching an opposite chamfered end with a pin coupled to a spring loaded button. A press on the button away from the latch releases the chamfered end from the pin so support structure member is free from the housing bay to remove the communication carrier.

Information handling system carrier

A chassis housing one or more Information Handling Systems (IHSs) includes a bay for coupling hardware components to the chassis, such as rear-facing bay that extends from the chassis midplane to an externally accessible opening. A first hardware component is fastened to a removeable carrier and the carrier is inserted in the bay, with the first hardware component coupling to the midplane. The carrier includes arms that extend to the externally accessible opening. Each arm includes a retractable handle that is used, when in an extended position, to extract the carrier from the bay. A second, removeable hardware component is inserted in the bay, with the second hardware components nested between the arms of the carrier. The carrier handles rotate to a concealed position when the second hardware component is nested in the carrier and the handles rotate to the extended position when the second hardware component is removed.

Carrier supporting nested, replaceable hardware components

Techniques arrange a disk, a storage device, and a disk array. Such techniques involve: a bracket configured to be detachably coupled to a rack; and a button arranged in the bracket and configured to be movable under the action of an external force to decouple the bracket from the rack, wherein a first end of the button is configured to be operated by a user, and the end surface of the first end includes a first surface and a second surface, the second surface extending from the first surface towards a second end, opposite to the first end, of the button. Accordingly, such techniques not only can avoid accidental touch, improve heat dissipation efficiency, and provide a mark area, but also can help prevent loss of user data in a storage device and a disk array.

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a projected equipment information operation within an IT environment. In various embodiments, the projected equipment information operation includes: receiving equipment information regarding an information handling system within the IT environment; identifying AR content associated with the equipment information regarding the information handling system within the IT environment; and, projecting the AR content associated with the equipment information onto a physical device within the IT environment, a combination of the AR content and the physical device providing a composite view, the composite view providing a hands free and device free provision of the equipment information.

Projected information display for IT equipment environments

A read/write method and a read/write system for a FRU are provided. The read method for the FRU comprises: a chassis management module identifying an embedded processor connected to the FRU according to an ID of the FRU inputted by a user; the chassis management module transferring the ID of the FRU and a command for reading and writing the FRU to the embedded processor connected to the FRU through a serial port; the embedded processor reading the FRU and sending a reading result to the chassis management module when identifying a type of the command as read. By the present invention, a user would complete a refresh for a FRU by inputting contents in form of a string into each field to be refreshed. Moreover, the duration of refreshing a single FRU is within 30 seconds and a fast refresh for a Node FRU is achieved.

Read/write method and read/write system for FRU

A fan control method comprises: determining whether a processor power load value is larger than a load threshold, and generating a load determination result accordingly; determining whether a processor temperature is not larger than a temperature threshold, and generating a temperature determination result accordingly; choosing one set of PID coefficients from a plurality of sets of PID coefficients according to the load determination result and the temperature determination result; obtaining a temperature difference value related to the processor, and generating a first pulse width modulation value according to the temperature difference value and the set of PID coefficients; and calculating a second pulse width modulation value corresponding to an operation temperature, and obtaining a maximum of the first pulse width modulation value and the second pulse width modulation value to generate a fan control signal for controlling the fan.
