RELATIONSHIP DRIVEN DYNAMIC WORKFLOW SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A system management information handling system (IHS), comprising:
- a processing system; and
a memory system that is coupled to the processing system and that includes instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the processing system to;
discover a plurality of devices in a networked system;
determine a plurality of relationships between the plurality of devices;
store the plurality of relationships in the memory system;
determine that a first device of the plurality of devices requires configuration;
determine that the first device has a relationship with at least one second device of the plurality of devices using the plurality of relationships stored in the memory system; and
send an instruction to configure the at least one second device having the relationship with the first device according to the configuration required for the first device.

Abstract
A networked system includes a first information handling system (IHS) including a plurality of first IHS components and a second IHS coupled to the first IHS. A system management IHS is coupled to the first IHS and operable to discover the first IHS and the second IHS. The system management IHS then determines a plurality of relationships between the first IHS components and the second IHS and stores the plurality of relationships. The system management IHS then determines that the second IHS requires configuration. The system management IHS then determines that the at least some of the first IHS components have a relationship with the second IHS using the plurality of relationships. The system management IHS then sends an instruction to configure the at least some of the first IHS components having the relationships with the second IHS according to the configuration required for the second IHS.
