Abstract

See full text

Provide access to storage resources of a storage device over a data storage fabric. Allow a zone manager of a first switch to assign a zone group to one of a plurality of phys of an expander of the storage device to allow the first switch to access storage resources of the storage device. If status of the phy that is assigned a zone group indicates a disconnection condition with the first switch, then configure the zone group of the expander of the storage device to prevent access to the storage resources of the storage device. If after the disconnection condition, the status of the phy indicates a reconnection condition with a second switch, then allow a zone manager of the second switch to assign a zone group to the phy to allow the second switch to access storage resources of the storage device.
