Abstract
A chassis may be configured to receive a plurality of modular information handling systems and a plurality of modular information handling resources including one or more storage controllers, and have at least two internal switching fabrics for communicating data between the modular information handling systems and the information handling resources. The chassis management controller disposed in the chassis may be configured to retrieve information regarding at least one of relative priorities among modular information handling systems disposed in the chassis, associations between modular information handling systems disposed in the chassis and storage resources disposed in the chassis, and input/output metrics from storage resources disposed in the chassis. The chassis management controller may also be configured to determine whether load balancing among the storage controllers of logical units associated with the storage controller would optimize performance between the modular information handling systems and modular information handling resources disposed in the chassis.
