ACCESSING DATA STORED IN A REMOTE TARGET USING A BASEBOARD MANAGEMENT CONTROLER (BMC) INDEPENDENTLY OF THE STATUS OF THE REMOTE TARGET'S OPERATING SYSTEM (OS)

摘要

Systems and methods for accessing data stored in a remote target using a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) and independently of the status of the remote target's Operating System (OS). In some embodiments, a BMC of an Information Handling System (IHS) may have program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: communicate with another BMC of another IHS over a network; and access a storage device of the other IHS through the other BMC via the network while the other IHS operates without any OS. In other embodiments, a method may include determining, by a first IHS, that a second IHS is operating without any OS; and sending, by a first BMC within the first IHS to a second BMC within the second IHS, an access request directed to a virtual drive of the second IHS.
