Abstract

Methods and systems for managing operation of data processing systems are disclosed. To manage the operation of the data processing systems, the data processing systems may include a port and a management controller that may selectively takeover the port from the host. When taken over, the management controller may use the port to attempt to obtain data usable to modify the operation of one or more modules of the data processing system. The modules may be modified to resolve incompatibilities between the modules. By resolving incompatibilities, data processing systems hosting incompatible modules may be returned to desired operation.
