20080281475 | FAN CONTROL SCHEME - A fan control architecture is provided for controlling system fan(s) on a computing system that has multiple nodes, a system management network and a fan control module. On each of the nodes a management module is configured to collect system information thereon. In a main fan control scheme, a system management node controls the system fan through the fan control module according to the temperature data sent back from the management module of the other nodes through the system management network. The fan control scheme includes redundant path(s) connected between all the nodes and the fan control module to send high-temperature signals to the fan control module directly. In the case that a threshold high temperature is reached, the fan control module will set the system fan at a predetermined high speed according to the high-temperature signals. | 11-13-2008 |
20080303692 | Method and System for Assigning Identity Addresses to Local Management Modules - A system and a method are provided for assigning plural identity addresses in sequence from a central management module to plural corresponding local management modules. A standby power is input to a current one of the local management modules. And the standby power towards a next un-actuated one of the local management modules is delayed for a delay period. Thus, the current one of the local management modules is allowed negotiating for assigning a dedicated one of the identity addresses. | 12-11-2008 |
20080307149 | Clustering System and Flexible Interconnection Architecture Thereof - An interconnection architecture is provided for flexibly connecting a primary host module or an added host module to a network switch in a clustering system. The interconnection architecture mainly includes plural first slots, a primary function module, an added function module and plural multifunctional buses. The first slots electrically connect the network switch with the primary and added host modules. The primary function module inserts in one of the first slots to electrically connect the primary host module with the network switch; and the added function module inserts in one of the first slots to electrically connect the added host module with the network switch. The multifunctional buses connect the network switch with the first slots and also connect the first slots with the primary host module and the added host module. | 12-11-2008 |
20090024724 | Computing System And System Management Architecture For Assigning IP Addresses To Multiple Management Modules In Different IP Configuration - A system is provided to assign IP (Internet Protocol) addresses to plural management modules under different IP modes. The system management modules are configured in a computing system that is integrated in a single chassis. All the system management modules are connected through a first management network to be assigned with a static IP address or a DHCP. Besides, a secondary system management network is used for each of the management modules to facilitate the assignment of pre-assigned private IP addresses based on the board IDs of the management modules. When DHCP mode is selected, IP configuration will be performed automatically. Namely in DHCP mode, even if the system is disconnected from the external network, the system management can be done through the system management network with the pre-assigned private IP address. | 01-22-2009 |
