Auto-didacted hierarchical failure recovery for remote access controllers

An information handling system comprising:

• a central unit processor (CPU);
• at least one component that operates based on execution of a corresponding firmware component;
• a local storage facility that stores executable firmware utilized to operate the at least one component;
• and
• a hierarchical recovery and learning system/module comprising:
• a failure detection mechanism that detects a failure of a firmware component in the information handling system;
• and
• a hierarchical failure recovery mechanism that:
• initiates a hierarchical failure recovery by executing at least one recovery sequence from a set of hierarchically ordered recovery sequences, corresponding to the detected failure;
• following execution of a recovery sequence, performing, before executing a next recovery sequence, an evaluating to determine whether the detected failure was corrected by executing the recovery sequence;
• in response to the failure not being corrected by executing the set of hierarchically ordered recovery sequences, dynamically generating at least one new recovery sequence using commands selected from at least one of the previously executed recovery sequences in order to extend the set of hierarchically ordered recovery sequences;
• and
• executing the at least one new recovery sequence.
