Abstract

A system is disclosed herein including a plurality of information handling systems (IHSs) coupled to and managed by a remote management system (RMS). According to one embodiment, each IHS may be configured to monitor data pertaining to the IHS, determine if the data triggers one or more events, and transmit a notification to the RMS if one or more events are triggered. The RMS may be configured to receive a notification transmitted from at least one IHS, select a policy to be applied to one or more of the IHSs based on the received notification, and transmit the selected policy to the one or more IHS s. The one or more IHSs may be further configured to receive the selected policy from the RMS, store the selected policy, and perform actions specified by the selected policy when policy rules specified by the selected policy are violated.
