Abstract

Example implementations relate to system and method of managing transitioning of a computing system to a power-on state from a standby-power state. The computing system includes a manageability controller, an initialization controller, an auxiliary device, and a processor. In such examples, the manageability controller may first determine an initialization status of the auxiliary device from a data corresponding to the auxiliary device, when the computing system is transitioning from the standby-power state to the power-on state. In one or more examples, the initialization status may include the auxiliary device in an initialized stage or a non-initialized stage. Later, the manageability controller may direct the initialization controller to delay the transitioning of the computing system from the standby-power state to the power-on state, in response to determining that the initialization status of the auxiliary device is in the non-initialized stage.
