Updating Non-Appendable Record

A system comprising non-transitory storage media encoded with code to, when executed by a processor, define:

• a record updater to update an original appendable record with new sections to yield an updated appendable record;
• and
• a record converter to convert
• an original non-appendable record into the original appendable record, said non-appendable record conforming to a non-appendable format, and
• the updated appendable record to yield an updated non-appendable record conforming to the non-appendable format.

A computer system comprising:

• a mission subsystem including hardware components to execute a user application;
• a management subsystem to maintain the mission subsystem, the management subsystem including a processor, communications devices, and storage media, the storage media being collectively encode with code to, when executed by the processor, implement a record update process including:
• converting an original UEFI-CPER record into an original linked-list;
• updating the original link list at least in part by adding new sections to yield an updated linked list;
• converting the updated linked list to yield an updated UEFI CPER record.
