Abstract
In response to a target port group state query from a host, the storage arrays that present a replicated volume to the host aggregate port group state of the storage arrays into a single logical target port group state that is provided to the host. The storage array that receives the query from the host may prompt other storage arrays to provide target port group state and combine the responses from all storage arrays. Port IDs may be translated into unique port IDs so that the logical target port group state does not include repeated port IDs.
