System and method for dynamic enablement of storage media associated with an access controller

摘要

Systems and methods for reducing problems and disadvantages associated traditional approaches to provisioning using access controllers are disclosed. A method may include storing a definition data structure in storage media associated with an access controller in an information handling system, the definition data structure including one or more parameters. The access controller may create a storage partition on the storage media based at least on the one or more parameters.

1. A method for provisioning storage media of an access controller in an information handling system, comprising:
receiving a definition data structure via an out-of-band management channel coupling a network to an access controller integral to the information handling system, the out-of-band management channel physically isolated from an in-band communication channel coupling the information handling system to the network via a network interface integral to the information handling system and independent of the access controller, wherein the out-of-band management channel is configured to receive communications regardless of the power state of the information handling system; storing the definition data structure in storage media associated with the access controller, the definition data structure including one or more parameters; and the access controller creating a storage partition on the storage media based at least on the one or more parameters.
