Original Abstract Submitted
Methods and systems for managing operation of data processing systems are disclosed. To manage operation of the data processing systems, the data processing systems may host management controllers that manage the operation of the data processing systems. The management controllers may be programmable, and may initiate recoveries for the management controllers when operation management software becomes corrupted or is unavailable for other reasons. During the recoveries, new copies of the operation management software may be obtained and used to initiate desired operation of the management controllers.
