Abstract
An identifier, such as a worldwide name, corresponding to a host computing device, or corresponding to a host bus adapter corresponding to the host computing device, may be transmitted to a storage array to configure the storage array to be accessed by the host computing device. The host may request a token from the array. The host may embed the token into a token block of a command message that is transmitted to the storage array requesting access to the array. Before performing an action corresponding to the command message, the storage array may verify that the token is a valid token and thus that the host computing device that transmitted the command message is a host computing device that has been authorized to access the storage array. If the storage array determines that the token is valid the storage array may perform an action corresponding to the command message.
