Abstract
Disclosed methods and system feature or perform operations including monitoring, within an operating system (OS) environment of an information handling system, telemetry data indicative of values for one or more hardware status parameters and generating any of one or more anomaly alerts responsive to identifying any of one or more anomalous conditions. Responsive to detecting an anomaly alert, an OS-context configuration may be determined based on the hardware status parameters monitored during a timebox associated with the anomaly alert. Responsive to detecting a reset of the information handling system, preboot operations may be performed wherein the pre-boot operations may include configuring the information handling system in accordance with the OS-context configuration and performing one or more hardware diagnostic routines while the information handling system is configured in accordance with the OS-context configuration.
