Abstract
Examples are disclosed for use of vendor defined messages to execute a command to access a storage device maintained at a server. In some examples, a network input/output device coupled to the server may receive the command from a client remote to the server for the client to access the storage device. For these examples, elements or components of the network input/output device may be capable of forwarding the command either directly to a Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) controller that controls the storage device or to a manageability module coupled between the network input/out device and the NVMe controller. Vendor specific information may be forwarded with the command and used by either the NVMe controller or the manageability module to facilitate execution of the command. Other examples are described and claimed.
