Abstract
Systems, methodologies, and media associated with acquiring a graphics mode post-failure screen provided by a graphical operating system running on a self-reset capable computer are described. One exemplary method embodiment may be performable in a management processor (e.g., ASIC, FPGA) that is configured to be operably connected to a computer (e.g., server) that is configured to provide a graphical post-failure screen and to self-reset upon entering a failure state. The exemplary method embodiment may include receiving a stream of video data from the computer and making it available to a downstream component like a remote console application. The exemplary method may also include performing a screen refresh after detecting the failure state in the computer. The exemplary method may also include selectively storing the graphical post-failure screen in a memory associated with the management processor.
