Techniques are provided for managing host connectivity to a data storage system. A host connectivity management system receives a request from a host system to connect to a data storage system. The data storage system includes storage nodes which include storage volumes, and each storage node includes multiple ports to enable connection to the storage node. The host connectivity management system determines a subset of ports, among all available ports of the storage nodes, to assign to the host system for use by the host system for connecting to the storage nodes of the data storage system to access the storage volumes. The host connectivity management system sends connection information to the host system to enable the host system to connect to the data storage system, wherein the connection information includes port identifiers associated with the subset of ports assigned to the host system.
