Equipment tracking for an information handling system
Abstract:
In some aspects, baseboard management controllers (BMCs) may register with an inventory management server (IMS). After registering with the IMS, based on detecting a change in inventory monitored by a BMC, the BMC may transmit a push notification to the IMS to notify the IMS of the change. The IMS may record such information in a database, which may be accessible to a system administrator, to one or more other users or systems, or a combination thereof. For example, the system administrator or other user or system may access the IMS to obtain a listing of registered BMCs and equipment associated with the registered BMCs, to search parts based on one or more filters (such as part serial number, part number, or part location, etc.), or to get lifecycle information related to one or more parts.
