A rack-mountable computer system includes: a power supply unit comprising a power storage module and a power switch module; a controller configured to generate a signal indicating status information of the rack-mountable computer system; an indicator configured to indicate the status information of the rack-mountable computer system; and a signal latch module. The power supply unit switches a power supply of the indicator from the external power supply unit to the power supply unit in a power loss event when the rack-mountable computer system is detached from a rack or a system power of the rack is lost from an external power supply unit and supplies power to the indicator after the power loss event occurs. The signal latch module is configured to latch the signal that is generated by the controller and indicates the status information of the rack-mountable computer system in response to the power loss event.

An information processing system includes one or more information processing apparatuses for determining lifetimes of components, to be replaced by preventive maintenance, of respective electric devices. The information processing system includes a leading variable specifying unit configured to specify, based on variables that represent use states of the electric devices and failure data of the electric devices which have been obtained from the electric devices, a plurality of leading variables relevant to the lifetimes of the components; a lifetime matrix creating unit configured to classify a plurality of values of each of the leading variables into sections to create a lifetime matrix in which the lifetimes of the components are set with respect to combinations of the sections each of which relates to a different leading variable; and a lifetime outputting unit configured to determine the lifetimes of the components with respect to the respective electric devices.

An information processing device includes at least a first storage device and a second storage device each to store a boot program, a first processor to read the boot program from the first storage device to boot the information processing device from the first storage device, and a second processor connected to each of the first storage device and the second storage device and the first processor. The second processor detects a completion or a failure of the boot from the first storage device, and when detecting the failure of the boot, switches a storage device to be used for booting from the first storage device to the second storage device to control the first processor to read the boot program from the second storage device.

A memory system and a data processing system including the memory system may manage a plurality of memory devices. For example, the data processing system may categorize and analyze error information from the memory devices, acquire characteristic data from the memory devices and set operation modes of the memory devices based on the characteristic data, allocate the memory devices to a host workload, detect a defective memory device among the memory devices and efficiently recover the defective memory device.

[Problem] To provide a server monitoring device capable of grasping the state of a server more rapidly than conventional ones, and a server monitoring system. [Solution] This server monitoring device has a configuration in which a plurality of optical fibers are optically coupled to a plurality of light-emitting elements each showing the operating state of a server by a lighting mode, and the end surfaces of the plurality of optical fibers on the opposite side to the light-emitting elements are secured in a predetermined arrangement. An image of a light emission pattern of the end surfaces of the optical fibers is captured by a camera, and the image is transmitted to a monitoring person.

Self-test and repair of memory cells is performed in a memory integrated circuit by two separate processes initiated by a memory controller communicatively coupled to the memory integrated circuit. To ensure that the repair process is completed in the event of an unexpected power failure, a first process is initiated by the memory controller to perform a memory Built-in Self Test (mBIST) in the memory integrated circuit and a second process is initiated by the memory controller after the mBIST has completed to perform repair of faulty memory cells detected during the MBIST process. The memory controller does not initiate the repair process if a power failure has been detected. In addition, a repair time associated with the repair process is selected such that the repair time is sufficient to complete the repair process while power is stable, if a power failure occurs after the repair process has been started.

Embodiments of the systems and methods disclosed herein relate to a modem having a processor including a Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) driver. The UEFI driver can be configured to provide a software interface between an operating system for the modem and firmware for the modem. The modem can include a boot diagnostic driver configured to run from the UEFI driver and execute a diagnostic test when the modem is booting up. The boot diagnostic driver can be configured to generate a signal based on a result of the diagnostic test.
