Systems and methods herein provide for load balancing Fiber Channel traffic. In this regard, a Fiber Channel load balancer may be operable to monitor Fiber Channel paths coupled to a host bus adapter and determine the speeds of the Fiber Channel ports within the Fiber Channel paths. The Fiber Channel load balancer may also be operable to determine certain characteristics of the Fiber Channel traffic being passed over the Fiber Channel paths. For example, a load balancer may determine Fiber Channel traffic sizes of pending requests and, based in part on the traffic sizes and operable normalized speeds of the Fiber Channel ports, adaptively route the pending original traffic across the Fiber Channel ports. |
