Abstract
In some examples, an adapter device includes a bridge to determine that a storage device includes a plurality of bus controllers, where the plurality of bus controllers are communicatively coupled to respective adapter devices. The bridge determines a quantity of supported connections over the network to the storage device, and in response to determining that the storage device comprises the plurality of bus controllers, the bridge computes an identifier based on the quantity of supported connections and to which respective bus controller of the plurality of bus controllers the adapter device is connected, and assigns the identifier to a connection from the host to the storage device.
