Abstract
A method for waking an information handling system includes receiving in a chassis a plurality of modular information handling systems and a plurality of modular information handling resources, routing access of one of the modular information handling resources to one or more of the plurality of modular information handling systems, monitoring a plurality of power management event lines, determining a wake message received at one of the modular information handling resources, determining which of the plurality of modular information handling systems is associated with the received wake message, forwarding a wake signal to the determined modular information handling system, and powering on the determined information handling system. The modular information handling resource is configured to receive a wake message. Each line is coupled one of the modular information handling resources.
