Systems and methods for managing Serial Attached Small Computer System Interface (SAS) traffic with storage monitoring are described. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include an embedded controller (EC) and a memory coupled to the EC, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the EC to: designate a first Baseband Management Controller (BMC) as active; designate a second BMC as passive; and receive, from the active BMC, monitoring data relating to one or more of a plurality of storage devices without receiving the monitoring data from the passive BMC.

A method includes determining a need to perform a learn cycle on a battery in a processing module of an information handling system, detecting a learn cycle in progress on another battery in another processing module of the information handling system, and postponing the learn cycle on the battery in response to detecting the learn cycle on the other battery.

Battery management system

An information handling system includes a first managed system including a first processor and a first management controller and a second managed system including a second processor and a second management controller. The first management controller is coupled to directly communicate with the second management controller. In an embodiment, the first management controller is coupled to the second management controller via a first I2C interface.

System management through direct communication between system management controllers

In accordance with the present disclosure, a method for dynamically configuring a target device comprises receiving by one or more ports of a target device one or more initiator identifiers from one or more initiators. The method further comprises determining whether a plurality of ports received initiator identifiers from a common initiator. The method further comprises configuring the plurality of the ports to operate as a single, logical port if the plurality of ports received initiator identifiers from a common initiator.
