Abstract
A life cycle agent stored in non-transitory memory and executing on an information handling system processor detects lifecycle information associated with a component of the information handling system to communicate to a network location so that the lifecycle information is available at breakdown of the information handling system for reuse. A scannable code on the component includes an identifier stored with the lifecycle information so that component health is evaluated at information handling system breakdown. Lifecycle information of one component is stored on other components when relevant to the lifecycle of the other components, such as detection of liquid at a keyboard membrane, which is stored locally in a motherboard lifecycle non-transitory memory.
