1. A system, comprising:
a first physical chassis comprising a first chassis management unit (“CMU”); wherein the first CMU is to communicate with a second CMU in an additional physical chassis; and wherein the first CMU is to communicate for the first physical chassis and the additional physical chassis as one logical chassis; and a data record, wherein the data record comprises a public portion and a private portion, the public portion referring to the first physical chassis and the additional physical chassis as the one logical chassis, the private portion referring to the first physical chassis and the additional physical chassis as two logical chassis, wherein devices of the first CMU and devices of the second CMU are operated as mutually exclusive sets of devices, and wherein the second CMU disables a feature on the additional physical chassis upon detection that the second CMU is to operate as a slave CMU.
