Abstract
Techniques are provided for storage system interface discovery with a limited number of persistent host discovery connections. One method comprises receiving, by a receiving storage system interface of multiple storage system interfaces, a discovery connection request from a given host interface; transforming, by the receiving storage system interface, an identifier of a host device associated with the given host interface to obtain an identifier of a given storage system interface; determining, by the receiving storage system interface, whether the identifier of the given storage system interface identifies the receiving storage system interface; and in response to the identifier of the given storage system interface identifying the receiving storage system interface, the receiving storage system interface (i) provides a persistent discovery connection to the given host interface; and (ii) provides discovery information to the given host interface identifying a set of available storage system interfaces.
