发明名称 Interfaces to multiple layers of device properties in a storage network
摘要 A host may be coupled to a fabric network. Fabric devices attached to the fabric network may be visible to the host through one or more host adapter ports. An interface may be configured to provide layer-specific device property information. The interface may be configured to obtain device property information for the devices attached to the fabric network from the fabric driver and return the device property information specific to one of the plurality of protocol layers. The protocol layers may include a transport layer and an end device target layer. An application may be any process running on the host that may request information about device properties via an interface (e.g., one or more application programming interfaces (APIs)). These interfaces may be configured to return the layer-specific device property information for multiple layers of device properties.
