Abstract
Methods and apparatus are provided for improving the configuration and allocation of storage resources in a fiber channel fabric. Network topology information and loop topology information is used to increase data availability and data access efficiency. For example, devices in different loops are selected for striping and devices connected to a host through different ports and switches are selected for mirroring. Link speed, quality of service, credits, and the availability of trunking links can also be considered.
