Abstract: A system for providing communication between chassis in a computer system includes a plurality of management modules connected by a communication path. A first module is configured as a master module and the remainder of the plurality is configured as slave modules. A single module is located within each chassis in the computer system. The slave modules gather information from a component within a specific domain of the slave modules. The slave modules send the information to the master module. The master module organizes the information to form a representation of a topology of the plurality of management modules. A method for providing communication between multiple chassis in a computer system includes gathering information from a component within a specific domain of the management module. The information is then sent from a slave management module to a master management module where the information is organized.
