Abstract

An information handling system for obtaining composed information handling systems includes resource set components and a system control processor. The system control processor makes an identification, based on monitoring of a resource set component of the resource set components, of an operation event; in response to the identification: makes a determination that the operation event is not immediately remediable based on the monitoring of the resource set component; in response to the determination: modifies the monitoring of the resource set component to obtain refined operation data for the resource set component; and performs an action set, based on the refined operation data, to modify operation of the resource set component.

Claims (54)

1. An information handling system for obtaining composed information handling systems, comprising:

resource set components; and

a system control processor, of a composed information handling system of the composed information handling systems, programmed to:

make an identification, based on monitoring of a resource set component of the resource set components, of an operation event;

in response to the identification:

make a determination that the operation event is not immediately remediable based on the monitoring of the resource set component;

in response to the determination:

modify the monitoring of the resource set component to obtain refined operation data for the resource set component; and

perform an action set, based on the refined operation data, to modify operation of the resource set component, wherein the action set comprises:

 identifying a feature in the data flow indicative of a performance defect in the operation of the resource set component;

 increasing a sampling rate of a data flow associated with the resource set component;

 identifying a second feature in the data flow that was not detectable prior to increasing the sampling rate;

 matching the second feature to a remediation action; and

 performing the remediation action by executing a configuration script to modify the operation of the resource set component.

2. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the action set comprises:

increasing a sampling rate of a data flow associated with a second resource set component of the resource set components.

3. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the action set comprises:

initiating sampling of a data flow associated with a second resource set component of the resource set components.

4. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the action set comprises:

obtaining a sampling of a data flow associated with a resource set component monitored by a second system control processor of a second information handling system.

5. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the data flow is sampled transparently to the resource set components.

6. The information handling system of claim 1 , wherein the information handling system comprises:

a compute resource set comprising a first portion of the resource set components; and

a hardware resource set comprising a second portion of the resource set components,

wherein the system control processor interconnects the compute resource set and the hardware resource set.

7. The information handling system of claim 6 , wherein the compute resource set views the hardware resource set as a bare metal resource.

8. A method for providing computer implemented services using composed information handling systems, comprising:

making an identification, based on monitoring of a resource set component of resource set components of an information handling system used to form at least one of the composed information handling systems, of an operation event;

in response to the identification:

making a determination that the operation event is not immediately remediable based on the monitoring of the resource set component;

in response to the determination:

modifying the monitoring of the resource set component to obtain refined operation data for the resource set component; and

performing an action set based on the refined operation data to modify operation of the resource set component, wherein the action set comprises:

identifying a feature in the data flow indicative of a performance defect in the operation of the resource set component;

increasing a sampling rate of a data flow associated with the resource set component;

identifying a second feature in the data flow that was not detectable prior to increasing the sampling rate;

matching the second feature to a remediation action; and

performing the remediation action by executing a configuration script to modify the operation of the resource set component.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the action set comprises:

increasing a sampling rate of a data flow associated with a second resource set component of the resource set components.

10. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer readable program code, which when executed by a computer processor enables the computer processor to perform a method for providing computer implemented services using composed information handling systems, the method comprising:

making an identification, based on monitoring of a resource set component of resource set components of an information handling system used to form at least one of the composed information handling systems, of an operation event;

in response to the identification:

making a determination that the operation event is not immediately remediable based on the monitoring of the resource set component;

in response to the determination:

modifying the monitoring of the resource set component to obtain refined operation data for the resource set component; and

performing an action set based on the refined operation data to modify operation of the resource set component, wherein the action set comprises:

identifying a feature in the data flow indicative of a performance defect in the operation of the resource set component;

increasing a sampling rate of a data flow associated with the resource set component;

identifying a second feature in the data flow that was not detectable prior to increasing the sampling rate;

matching the second feature to a remediation action; and

performing the remediation action by executing a configuration script to modify the operation of the resource set component.

11. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the action set comprises:

increasing a sampling rate of a data flow associated with a second resource set component of the resource set components.
