Hi,

Our BMCs have additional properties that aren't in the Manager schema.

These properties are SparePartNumber, LocationIndicatorActive, and Location.

You can see LocationIndicatorActive and Location at www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER8/p8ecs/p8ecs_85x_loccodes.htm

Failing item name	Physical location code	Identify LED
Service processor card	Un-P1-C5	Yes

Would Redfish be interested in adding these properties to the Manager schema?

Yes, those are straightforward to add. We didn't have those in place for Manager because our assumption was that the Manager was either integrated into a system, or was a removable module (for blade enclosures) that would best be modeled as a separate Chassis (containing a Manager). But for a "daughtercard" or similar implementation, modeling a Chassis would be overkill. So adding those supporting properties is the right answer...
