Abstract
Provided is an article of manufacture, system and method for a management system for using host and storage controller port information to configure paths between a host and storage controller in a network. The management system obtains information on ports on at least one host, at least one storage controller, and at least one fabric over which the host and storage controller ports connect. The management system gathers, for at least one host port and storage controller port, a connection metric and a traffic metric. The management system processes the connection and traffic metrics for the host and storage ports to select at least one host port and at least one storage controller port configures the port pair to provide at least one path enabling the access at least one storage volume managed by the selected storage controller.
