configuring the bootable settings in the channel card.

3. A network server comprising:

a memory having a program configured to scan a server in a system of servers in order to obtain a new inventory of information including a new port name from the server, to compare the new inventory of information to a current inventory of information

including a current port name stored in the network server, generating an event utilizing the comparison, wherein at least one event action plan is provided based upon the event;

wherein utilizing the comparison further comprising:

mapping a boot drive coupled to the server to the new port name in the event that the new port name differs from the current port name;

wherein utilizing the comparison further comprising:

storing the new port name in the network server;

wherein utilizing the comparison further comprising:

rebooting the server from the executable operating instructions on the boot drive; and

wherein the server comprises a channel card having a basic input-output system (BIOS) with bootable settings, and utilizing the comparison further comprising:

configuring the bootable settings in the channel card.

4. The network server of claim 3 further configured to store the new port name.

5. The network server of claim 4 further configured to replace the current port name with the new port name.

6. The network server of claim 5 further configured to reboot from a boot drive.

7. A method for detecting a change in a server in a server system, the method comprising:

booting a server from a network server, wherein the server comprises a port name;

scanning the server by the network server to obtain a new inventory of information from the server, wherein the new inventory of information includes a new port name;

comparing the new inventory of information to a current inventory of information stored on the network server; and

generating an event by utilizing the comparison to provide a redundant array of independent disks firmware upgrade;

wherein utilizing the comparison further comprising:

mapping a boot drive coupled to the server to the new port name in the event that the new port name differs from the current port name;

wherein utilizing the comparison further comprising:

storing the new port name in the network server;

wherein utilizing the comparison further comprising:

rebooting the server from the executable operating instructions on the boot drive; and

wherein the server comprises a channel card having a basic input-output system (BIOS) with bootable settings, and utilizing the comparison further comprising:

configuring the bootable settings in the channel card.

8. The method of claim 7 , the event action plan including a network server firmware update task.

9. A computer-readable medium encoded with a computer program for detecting a change in a server in a server system, the server system being coupled to a network server, the computer program comprising computer-executable instructions for:

booting a server from a network server after a change has taken place;

scanning the server by the network server to obtain a new inventory of information, wherein the new inventory of information includes a new port name;

comparing the new inventory of information to a current inventory of information, wherein the current inventory of information includes a current port name; and

generating an event utilizing the comparison to provide a redundant array of independent disks firmware upgrade;

wherein utilizing the comparison further comprising:

mapping a boot drive coupled to the server to the new port name in the event that the new port name differs from the current port name;

wherein utilizing the comparison further comprising:

storing the new port name in the network server;

wherein utilizing the comparison further comprising:

rebooting the server from the executable operating instructions on the boot drive; and

wherein the server comprises a channel card having a basic input-output system (BIOS) with bootable settings, and utilizing the comparison further comprising:

configuring the bootable settings in the channel card.
