Abstract

A method for managing an information handling system includes detecting an insertion signal indicating an insertion of a server blade or other another type of modular information handling system or information handling resource into a slot of a blade server chassis. A power-on request that identifies the server blade and the slot in which the server blade was inserted may be received. A blade history table may be searched for an entry matching or otherwise corresponding to the server blade. If the blade history table includes a matching entry, comprising an entry corresponding to the modular information handling system, the chassis management controller may control the power-on sequence for the server blade in accordance with one or more attributes or fields of the matching entry.
