A method, system, and apparatus for accessing a plurality of storage devices in a storage area network (SAN) as network attached storage (NAS) in a data communication network is described. A SAN server includes a first interface and a second interface. The first interface is configured to be coupled to the SAN. The second interface is coupled to a first data communication network. A NAS server includes a third interface and fourth interface. The third interface is configured to be coupled to a second data communication network. The fourth interface is coupled to the first data communication network. The SAN server allocates a first portion of the plurality of storage devices in the SAN to be accessible through the second interface to at least one first host coupled to the first data communication network. The SAN server allocates a second portion of the plurality of storage devices in the SAN to the NAS server. The NAS server configures access to the second portion of the plurality of storage devices to at least one second host coupled to the second data communication network. |
