Provided are a computer program product for managing bus interface errors in a storage system coupled to a host and storage. A determination is made as to whether a first number of correctable errors on a first bus interface, connecting a first processing unit to the storage, exceeds a second number of correctable errors on a second bus interface, connecting a second processing unit to the storage, by a difference threshold. The correctable errors in the first and second bus interfaces are detected and corrected in the first and second bus interfaces by first hardware and second hardware, respectively. In response to determining that the first number of correctable errors exceeds the second number of correctable errors by the difference threshold, at least a portion of Input/Output (I/O) requests are redirected to a second processing unit using the second bus interface to connect to the storage.
A computer program product implemented in a host adaptor to manage I/O requests from a host to a storage, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therein that is executable to perform operations, the operations comprising:
A system for managing bus interface errors in a storage system coupled to a host and a storage, comprising:
A method implemented in a host adaptor to manage I/O requests from a host to a storage, comprising:
