| 发明名称 | Zone group reassignment using storage device signatures | ||
| 摘要 | A method and apparatus for assigning zone groups to a storage enclosure is disclosed. When a storage enclosure is added to a switch in a fabric, a signature of the storage enclosure will be created from the storage devices loaded in that enclosure. The signature will then be compared against the signature from a storage enclosure that is offline. When the signature matches the signature of the offline storage enclosure, the zone groups from the offline storage enclosure will be copied to the storage enclosure that was added to the fabric. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A method for assigning zone groups to a physical storage enclosure, comprising: detecting when the physical storage enclosure is added to a fabric; creating a signature from each storage device in the physical storage enclosure; comparing the signature against the signature of a physical storage enclosure that is offline; when the created signature matches the signature of the offline storage enclosure, copying zone groups from the offline storage enclosure to the physical storage enclosure that was added to the fabric. | ||
