    Abstract: A server board includes first and second devices. A first service processor of the first device operates as a master baseboard management controller of the server board, and monitors a communication channel for alive messages from a plurality service processors. A second service processor operates as a secondary baseboard management controller, and sets a second timer to a first value. In response to a determination that the second timer has expired based on a first value: the second service processor to start a switchover process, and to set the second timer to a second value based on an alive message period. In response to a primary alive message not being received from the first service processor prior to the second timer expiring based on the second value, the second service processor to reset first service processor and to operate as the master baseboard management controller.

    Abstract: A method of automatically identifying and recreating tenants environment issues in a set of datacenters by a workflow replay tool is provided. Each datacenter includes a network manager server. The method analyzes, by the workflow replay tool, a set of log files generated in the particular tenant's environment to identify tenant's workflows. The method analyzes, by the workflow replay tool, network manager server databases of the tenant's environment to identify the logical entities in the tenant environment used by the identified workflows. The method allocates resources in a lab environment to simulate the tenant's environment. The method reruns the identified tenant's workflows by the workflow replay tool using the allocated resources in the lab environment to recreate tenant environment issues.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for analyzing performance of a processing system are based on performance counters provided in trace points located at selected nodes of the processing system. A first transaction to be monitored is identified as a transaction to be monitored at a first trace point if the transaction is detected, by a performance counter, more than a threshold number of times at the first trace point. A first trace tag identifier is associated with the first transaction at the first trace point. The first transaction is identified at one or more other trace points based on the first trace tag identifier. Based on time stamps at which the first transaction is identified at the trace points, information such as trace information, latency, locality of a consuming device of the first transaction, etc. is obtained from the various trace points.
