US Patent 11301404 Enabling high availability in server SAN enabled storage box

A computer system has a first node including a first baseboard management controller (BMC) and a first host of the first BMC. The first node determines that the first node is an active node. The first node operates a first storage service at the first host. The first host is a first storage device connected to one or more storage drives. The first storage service manages a first Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) controller for accessing user data stored on the one or more storage drives. The first node indicates to a second node that the first node is operating normally. The first node syncs data available on the first node with the second node.
