A data processing node includes a management environment, an application environment, and a shared memory segment (SMS). The management environment includes at least one management services daemon (MSD) running on one or more dedicated management processors thereof. One or more application protocols are executed by the at least one MSD on at least one of the dedicated management processors. The management environment has a management interface daemon (MID) running on one or more application central processing unit (CPU) processors thereof. The SMS is accessible by the at least one MSD and the MID for enabling communication of information of the one or more application protocols to be provided between the at least one MSD and the MID. The MID provides at least one of management service to processes running within the application environment and local resource access to one or more processes running on another data processing node.

In an embodiment, a system is configured to replay and/or reconstruct execution events and system states in real time or substantially in real time starting from the point when execution of a target program has stopped to the point when the user desires to step through the target program's execution in order to debug the software. In an embodiment, a system is configured to efficiently collect trace data that is sufficient to reconstruct the state of a computer system at any point of time from the start of execution to the time execution was stopped. Efficient and effective debugging of the software can be performed using embodiments of the disclosed methods, systems, and devices.

Disclosed are embodiments that communicate label information for documents between two enterprise computer systems. The two computer systems operate asynchronous from each other, and have limited available resources for use in buffering information passing between them. To that end, traditional API architectures that utilize method calls and return parameters do not operate well in this environment, as a first computer systems resources can become exhausted if a second computer system is able to generate data faster than the first computer system can consume it. The problem is exacerbated if an error is experienced when processing the consumed data, especially if there are no resources available to store the data until the error can be cleared. To solve this problem, the disclosed embodiments provide an ability for a consumer to request that data previously delivered to it be delivered again by the producer, in some embodiments, after a specified time delay.

A trace-data preparation circuit including a filtering circuit to receive traced memory-write data and a First In First Out buffer coupled with the filtering circuit to receive selected memory-write data filtered by the filtering circuit. The trace-data preparation circuit further including a data compression circuit to provide packaging data to a packaging circuit that groups the selected memory-write data.

An example polling computing device includes a processor controlled to: determine an interval time to poll a monitored device in a queue of monitored devices based on a current processing time of a given monitored device being polled, and an average processing time for previously polled monitored devices; adjust a polling rate such that the interval time is between a minimum polling interval target and a maximum polling interval target; poll the monitored devices in the queue according to the polling rate; receive, in response to the poll, from the monitored devices in the queue, current software version indicators of software installed at the monitored devices; and transmit, to a software patch difference device, the current software version indicators, the software patch difference device to determine which of the monitored devices have been updated since a last poll based on the current software version indicators.

According to at least one aspect of the present invention, a system for automatically generating a data-center network mapping for automated alarm consolidation is provided comprising a plurality of devices, and at least one computing device communicatively coupled to each of the devices, the at least one computing device being configured to receive operational data from each of the devices, the operational data being indicative of at least one of a power path, cooling or temperature zones, or communications paths, determine, based on the operational data, device relationships between each of the devices, receive, from each of the devices, a respective alarm of a plurality of alarms, determine alarm relationships between at least two of the plurality of alarms, consolidate, based on the determined device relationships and based on the determined alarm relationships, the plurality of alarms into a consolidated alert, and provide the consolidated alert to a user.

A computer system includes an operating system, a memory coupled to the operating system, and a processor (e.g., an anti-debug processor) coupled to the operating system. The operating system receives, from a debug process, a request to create an essential debug object for attachment to a target process. The anti-debug processor scans a kernel memory of the operating system for the essential debug object and verifies a presence of the essential debug object in the kernel memory, and scans the kernel memory to identify a process that has stored in the kernel memory the essential debug object. The anti-debug processor then halts the debug process, without using an internal interface or function of the operating system, thereby preventing the debug process from attaching to the target process.

An on-die logic analyzer (ODLA) can reduce the time and resources that would otherwise be spent in validating or debugging memory system timings. The ODLA can receive an enable signal with respect to a start command and start a count of clock cycles in response to a first issued command matching the start command defined in a first mode register. The ODLA can stop the count of clock cycles in response to a second issued command matching a stop command defined in a second mode register. The ODLA can write a value indicative of the stopped count to a third mode register or an on-die storage array in response to the stopped count exceeding a previously stored count.
