Abstract: A system manager for a computer system. The system manager transparently monitors signals transferred between computer system components along a system bus and stored objects related to the monitored signals in an object space. Information related to operating conditions within the system can then be provided from the object space. Later, the object space can be updated and the updated object space used to provide updated information regarding the operating conditions of the system.

Abstract: COMPUTER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED MANAGEMENT INFORMATION BASE A method of managing a plurality of networked manageable devices which include at least one file server having a system board, a drive array subsystem associated with the file server and a server manager installed in the file server for monitoring the system board from a manager console using a management information base or "MIB". First, second and third plurality of objects which describe the system board, the drive array subsystem and the server manager, respectively, are collected and assembled into a MIB. The assembled MIB is then used to manage the file server.

Abstract: METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONFIGURATION OF COMPUTER SYSTEM AND CIRCUIT BOARDS A method and apparatus for determining and selecting configuration options and settings of circuit boards used in a computer system is disclosed. The options and settings are placed in a file according to a given format, at which time the system determines if non-conflicting use of the common system recources is possible. If so, these option and setting parameters are used to configure the circuit boards.

Abstract: A computer system remote reboot facility is provided by resetting the central processing unit (108) with a local or host console (106) and by effecting a bus reset, by signals from a remote console (34) transmitted over an asynchronous line (104) connecting the remote console to the computer system manager (22) within the host (106). The computer system manager (22), preferably together with a keyboard controller (110), generate the reset signals. Effectively, cold booting is effected by the remote console simulating the effect of power cycling on the host and warm booting is achieved by emulation of "CONTROL-ALT-DEL" keystrokes.

Abstract: INMATE BUS MONITOR FOR COMPUTER SYSTEM MANAGER A manager for innately monitoring a computer system. All address and data signals transferred over the system bus and certain ones of the address signals are then selected as related to operating conditions of the computer system. A data filter selects data signals which correspond to the selected address signals and the selected address and data signals related to operating conditions of the computer system are then stored, either in a register filed if the selected address and data signals are dynamic information requiring frequent status updates or in a first-in, first-out memory, if the selected address and data signals are less dynamic information.
