Abstract
The invention relates to an improved Fiber Channel data management technique. More specifically, this patent relates to an improved scheme for managing the related data in related frames that form a sequence. This patent also generally relates to the management of multiple, active sequences which are simultaneously in transit on a Fiber Channel. This invention provides a means for efficiently locating the sequence status block associated with an arbitrary Fiber Channel sequence by using the source identifier field, the originator exchange identifier field and/or the sequence identifier fields of a Fiber Channel frame header to construct a hash table lookup search.
