Abstract
A node for a VSAN includes a BMC, a processor, and a plurality of VSAN objects. The processor instantiates a Cluster Membership, Monitoring, and Directory Service (CMMDS) and a BMC Service Module (SM). The CMMDS implements a Security Policy and Data Model (SPDM) architecture. The CMMDS determines an inventory list of the VSAN objects and a SPDM authentication state for each of the objects, and provides the inventory list and the SPDM authentication states to the BMC SM. The BMC SM provides the inventory list and the SPDM authentication state to the BMC. The BMC determines that a first VSAN object is not authenticated based upon the SPDM authentication state of the first VSAN object, and directs the CMMDS to halt input/output (I/O) operations on the VSAN to the first VSAN object.
