Abstract
Exemplary methods, computer systems, and computer program products for automatic registration of devices in a computer environment are provided. In one embodiment, the computer environment is configured for, in response to a fabric login (FLOGI) and/or a fixed disk (Fdisk) received from an initiator and/or a target disk, executing an automatic name server registration, state change registration, and management server registration to identify at least one of the devices.
Claims24
A method for automatic registration of a plurality of devices by a processor device in a computing storage environment, comprising:
- in response to one of a fabric login (FLOGI) and a fixed disk (Fdisk) received from one of an initiator and a target disk, executing at least one of an automatic name server registration, state change registration, and management server registration to identify at least one of the plurality of devices.
A system for automatic registration of a plurality of devices in a computing storage environment, comprising:
- a processor device operable in the computing storage environment, wherein the processor device is adapted for:
- in response to one of a fabric login (FLOGI) and a fixed disk (Fdisk) received from one of an initiator and a target disk, executing at least one of an automatic name server registration, state change registration, and management server registration to identify at least one of the plurality of devices.
A computer program product for automatic registration of a plurality of devices by a processor device in a computing storage environment, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program code portions stored therein, the computer-readable program code portions comprising:
- a first executable portion for, in response to one of a fabric login (FLOGI) and a fixed disk (Fdisk) received from one of an initiator and a target disk, executing at least one of an automatic name server registration, state change registration, and management server registration to identify at least one of the plurality of devices.
