Abstract
Disclosed is a method of operating an electronic device which includes a host device and a storage device. The host device includes a processor and a baseboard management controller (BMC), the storage device includes a storage controller and a micro controller unit (MCU), and the BMC and the MCU support out-of-band communication. The method of operating the electronic device includes providing, by the BMC, a first request including information about environment data to the MCU through the out-of-band communication, and providing, by the MCU, a first response corresponding to the first request to the BMC through the out-of-band communication.
