Abstract

An information handling system includes an add-in slot and a baseboard management controller (BMC). The add-in slot receives components of a particular type. The BMC receives an identifier from a particular component installed into the add-in slot. The identifier uniquely identifies the component from any other component of the same type. The BMC further determines whether or not a first entry in an encoded component table includes the first identifier, determines an action to perform for the component in response to determining that the entry includes the identifier, and performs the action for the component. The first entry is associated with the first add-in slot.
