Abstract

See full text

A system for configuring a storage area network (SAN) may include a plurality of selectable SAN elements, and a design module operable to graphically configure selected SAN elements, and a validation engine operable to dynamically validate the configuration of the selected SAN elements. The validation engine may include an element related validation module and a group related validation module. The element related validation module may be configured to validate element to element relationships of connected SAN elements in the configuration of selected SAN elements. The group related validation module may be configured to validate a group of SAN elements in the configuration of selected SAN elements. The validation modules may be arranged such that during validation of the configuration of selected SAN elements, the element related validation module is employed before the group related validation module.
