Abstract
Systems and methods for managing dependencies for Human Interface Infrastructure (HII) devices are described. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a host processor and a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) coupled to the host processor, the BMC having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the BMC, cause the BMC to: receive, from another IHS remotely located with respect to the IHS, a request to change a value of a given attribute of a Human Interface Infrastructure (HII) device coupled to the IHS; and use a dependency matrix to determine how the change is affected by a current value of another attribute.
