A SAS expander that includes a storage management module to cause the SAS expander to configure zoning of targets coupled to the SAS expander based on zone configuration rules. The storage management to cause, in response to receipt of a command to enter an expander reduced functionality mode of operation, the SAS expander to prevent initiators access to the targets coupled to the SAS expander and to allow update of expander functionality module for controlling operation of the SAS expander. The storage management module to cause, upon completion of the expander reduced functionality mode of operation, the SAS expander to reconfigure the zoning of the targets coupled to the SAS expander based on the zone configuration rules and to allow initiators access to the targets coupled to the SAS expander. |
