Techniques of sending alerts from storage services running on server san target

A computer system, comprising:

• a first node having a first baseboard management controller (BMC), including:
• a first memory;
• and
• first at least one processor coupled to the first memory and configured to:
• receive, at the first BMC, state information of one or more storage drives connected to a first host;
• and
• send, at the first BMC, notifications to a client of the first BMC, in response to receiving the state information;
• and
• the first host of the first BMC, including:
• a second memory;
• and
• a primary processing unit coupled to the second memory and configured to:
• operate a first storage service at the first host, the first host being a first storage device connected to the one or more storage drives, the first storage service managing a first Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) controller for accessing user data stored on the one or more storage drives through a storage network.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer executable code for operating a computer system, the computer system including a first node having a first baseboard management controller (BMC) and a first host of the first BMC, comprising code to, when executed on a primary processing unit coupled to a second memory at the first host:

• operate a first storage service at the first host, the first host being a first storage device connected to one or more storage drives, the first storage service managing a first Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) controller for accessing user data stored on the one or more storage drives through a storage network;
• wherein the non-transitory computer-readable medium further comprises code to, when executed on first at least one processor coupled to a first memory at the first BMC of the first node:
• receive, at the first BMC, state information of the one or more storage drives;
• and
• send, at the first BMC, notifications to a client of the first BMC, in response to receiving the state information.
