Abstract
Methods and systems for managing a data processing system are disclosed. To manage the data processing system, a management controller of the data processing system may obtain location data for the data processing system via an out-of-band communication channel. The location data for the data processing system may include different types of location data obtained via different location generation sources. The management controller may identify whether the different types of location data are consistently reporting location status of the data processing system. If the location data is determined to be consistent, then the management controller may provide a location report based on the location data using the out-of-band communication channel to a server to update a location status of the data processing system.
