Abstract
In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a system may include a chassis, one or more chassis management controllers housed in the chassis, and a switch management controller. The chassis may be configured to receive a plurality of modular information handling systems. The one or more chassis management controllers may be configured to receive a storage management command, encapsulate the storage management command in a first datagram, and communicate the first datagram to a switch management controller housed in the chassis. The switch management controller may be configured to extract the storage management command from the first datagram, identify a storage controller associated with the storage management command, and communicate an input/output control request to the storage controller based on the storage management command.
