## Abstract

A quick management action system includes a computing device having a management subsystem that is coupled to a management device. The management subsystem provides a management subsystem Graphical User Interface (GUI) launch page for display on the management device, receives credentials and an identification of a management action associated with the computing device from the management device via the management subsystem GUI launch page. The management subsystem then, automatically while the management subsystem GUI launch page is provided for display on the management device, authenticates the credentials, authorizes the management action based on the credentials and, in response, performs the management action, and provides information associated with a result of the performance of the management action for display on the management subsystem GUI launch page.

authenticate the credentials;
authorize the management action based on the credentials;
perform, in response to authenticating the credentials and authorizing the management action, the management action; and
provide, for display on the management subsystem GUI launch page in response to performing the management action, information associated with a result of the performance of the management action.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

wherein the credentials and the identification of the management action are received in response to the management subsystem GUI launch page:
receiving the credentials in the at least one credential element;
receiving the identification of the management action in the management action identification element; and
receiving a single selection of the management action request element.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the management subsystem is configured, automatically while the management subsystem GUI launch page is provided for display on the management device, to:
verify that that the management subsystem is licensed to perform the management action, wherein the management action is performed in response to authenticating the credentials, authorizing the management action, and verifying the management subsystem is licensed to perform the management action.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the management subsystem is configured to authenticate the credentials, authorize the management action based on the credentials, perform the management action, and identify the result of the performance of the management action without beginning or maintaining an active user session.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the management action is identified from a plurality of management actions that are provided for display on the management subsystem GUI launch page by the management subsystem.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The system of claim 5, wherein the management subsystem is configured to:
provide the plurality of management actions for display on the management subsystem GUI launch page based on the credentials having been used to previously perform the plurality of management actions.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the management subsystem is coupled to the management device via a network.

### Claim 8

An Information Handling System (IHS), comprising:
a management subsystem including:
a processing system; and
a memory system that is coupled to the processing system and that includes instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the processing system to provide a management engine that is configured to:
provide, for display on a management device, a management subsystem Graphical User Interface (GUI) launch page;
receive, from the management device via the management subsystem GUI launch page, credentials and an identification of a management action associated with the IHS and, automatically while the management subsystem GUI launch page is provided for display on the management device:
authenticate the credentials;
authorize the management action based on the credentials;
perform, in response to authenticating the credentials and authorizing the management action, the management action; and
provide, for display on the management subsystem GUI launch page in response to performing the management action,
information associated with a result of the performance of the management action.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The IHS of claim 8, wherein the management subsystem GUI launch page includes at least one credential element that is configured to receive the credentials, a management action identification element that is configured to receive the identification of the management action, and a management action request element that is configured to be selected to transmit credentials provided in the at least one credential element and the identification of the management action received in the management action identification element, and
wherein the credentials and the identification of the management action are received in response to the management subsystem GUI launch page:
receiving the credentials in the at least one credential element;
receiving the identification of the management action in the management action identification element; and
receiving a single selection of the management action request element.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The IHS of claim 8, wherein the management engine is configured, automatically while the management subsystem GUI launch page is provided for display on the management device, to:
verify that that the management subsystem is licensed to perform the management action, wherein the management action is performed in response to authenticating the credentials, authorizing the management action, and verifying the management subsystem is licensed to perform the management action.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)

The IHS of claim 8, wherein the management engine is configured to authenticate the credentials, authorize the management action based on the credentials, perform the management action, and identify the result of the performance of the management action without beginning or maintaining an active user session.

### Claim 12 (depends on 8)

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The IHS of claim 12, wherein the management engine is configured to:
provide the plurality of management actions for display on the management subsystem GUI launch page based on the credentials having been used to previously perform the plurality of management actions.

### Claim 14

A method for performing quick management actions, comprising:
providing, by a management subsystem in a computing device for display on a management device, a management subsystem Graphical User Interface (GUI) launch page;
