Abstract
A pair of servers may include a source server hosting a source virtual machine (VM) and a target server hosting a target VM. The source server may include a source central processing unit (CPU) and a source baseboard management controller (BMC), and the target server may include a target CPU and a target BMC. The source server and the target server are connected by an inband connection, and the source BMC and the target BMC are connected by a connection distinct from the inband connection. The source VM may be migrated to the target server over the inband connection, and in response to migrating the source VM, security data corresponding to the source VM is communicated from the source BMC to the target BMC over the connection between the BMCs.
