Abstract:
Techniques to facilitate an out-of-band (OOB) management in a virtualization environment include examples of assigning an endpoint identifier to a domain mapped to physical memory addresses of one or more storage devices coupled with a computing platform. The domain may enable software or a device driver executed by a virtual machine (VM) to access, manage or control at least a portion of the one or more storage devices. Examples also include receiving or forwarding messages through an OOB communication link coupled with the computing platform to a management entity to facilitate OOB management of the software or the device driver executed by the VM.
