Method to identify unique host applications running within a storage controller

摘要

A method for operating a controller includes receiving a command associated with at least one operation, determining a CPU channel path based on the received command, determining a unique job identifier based on the received command, and determining a state based on the received command. In addition, the method includes updating at least one data matrix based on the determined state, unique job identifier and CPU channel path and operating the controller based on the updated data matrix.

1. A method for operating a controller, the method comprising:
receiving a command associated with at least one operation; determining a CPU channel path based on the received command; determining a unique job identifier based on the received command; determining a state based on the received command; updating at least one data matrix based on the determined state, unique job identifier and CPU channel path; and operating the controller based on the updated data matrix wherein operating the controller based on the updated data matrix comprises: detecting at least one job-caused fault condition wherein one or more of the received commands of a job which caused the detected fault condition is the source of the detected fault condition; determining each unique job identifier stored within the data matrix based on the detected job-caused fault condition; and displaying a list of each determined unique job identifier based on the determination.
