Abstract
According to one embodiment, an Information Handling System (IHS) includes at least one storage unit that conforms to an NVMe specification and first and second BMCs. The BMCs are in communication with the storage unit and each configured with computer-executable instructions to negotiate with the second BMC, whether first or second BMC is to be an active BMC such that the other of the first or second BMCs becomes a passive BMC. When the first BMC is the active BMC, allow shared commands to be issued to a storage unit conforming to a Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) specification; otherwise, inhibit the shared commands from being issued to the storage unit.
