On Supermicro HGX systems (SYS-A21GE-NBRT) ~35 sub-chassis (GPU, NVSwitch,
PCIeRetimer, ERoT/IRoT, BMC, FPGA) all carry ChassisType=Module/Component/Zone
and expose empty /Drives collections. shouldAdaptiveNVMeProbe returned true for
all of them, triggering 35 × 384 = 13 440 HTTP requests → ~22 min wasted per
collection (more than half of total 35 min collection time).
Fix: chassisTypeCanHaveNVMe returns false for Module, Component, Zone. The
candidate selection loop in collectRawRedfishTree now checks the parent chassis
doc before adding a /Drives path to the probe list. Enclosure (NVMe backplane),
RackMount, and unknown types are unaffected.
Tests:
- TestChassisTypeCanHaveNVMe: table-driven, covers excluded and storage-capable types
- TestNVMePostProbeSkipsNonStorageChassis: topology integration, GPU chassis +
backplane with empty /Drives → exactly 1 candidate selected (backplane only)
