Abstract

See full text

The invention is a method of testing a storage network that includes a method of handling data at the port and bus level. The method includes emulating targets in computer memory, receiving data from initiators, and passing to computer memory only a portion of the data received. Bandwidth of internal memory and paths to memory are de-coupled from devices under test attached to ports, such that full bandwidth testing is possible at all test clients simultaneously. Data passed on a wire is returned or discarded at the port or bus level. The invention is useful for testing networks that have high bandwidths, and for testing large storage area networks.
