Abstract: In one embodiment, a fabric interconnect device accesses a software inventory of a storage device comprising a plurality of hardware components including at least one storage controller and a plurality of storage mediums. At least one entry of the software inventory identifies a hardware component of the storage device and an indication of at least one version of software installed for use by the hardware component or an indication that no software is installed for use by the hardware component. The fabric interconnect device determines whether one or more versions of software are available for use by the hardware component. The fabric interconnect device initiates installation of at least one version of software for the hardware component of the storage device based on the determination.
