Method and device for configuring storage system connection

摘要

A method for configuring a connection in a storage system is provided. A configuring device determines that the configuring device cannot communicate with a first control board; searches a route information table for route information related to the first control board, wherein the route information is route information between an adapter card and the first control board, wherein the adapter card is connected to a north bridge of the first control board through a PCIe bus; modifies the searched out route information by changing an address of the first control board in the route information to an address of a second control board, and stores the modified route information in the route information table.

1. In a storage system which comprises an adapter card, a configuring device, a first control board and a second control board, wherein the configuring device is connected to the first control board and the second control board, and the adapter card is connected to the configuring device, a method for configuring a connection comprising:
determining, by the configuring device, that the configuring device cannot communicate with the first control board; searching, by the configuring device, a route information table for route information related to the first control board, wherein the route information is route information between the adapter card and the first control board, wherein the adapter card is connected to a north bridge of the first control board through a PCIe bus; modifying, by the configuring device, the route information table by changing an address of the first control board in the route information to an address of the second control board; receiving, by the configuring device, a message forwarded by the adapter card; and sending, by the configuring device, the message to the second control board by using the modified route information table.
