Abstract
A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for configuring a set of controllers. The configuration of multiple controllers may be achieved through a combination of a host application and a controller application. A host application and a controller application are employed to configure the set of controllers in which the host application is employed to relay commands from the controller application to other controllers as well as provide other functions, such as, for example, a user interface to receive input for configuring the controllers. A request is sent from the controller application executing on a selected controller within the set of controllers to the host application executing in host memory. The request is for an execution of a command in at least one of the set of controllers in response to a requirement to configure the set of controllers. Execution of the command in one or more controllers in the set of controllers is initiated by the host application in response to receiving the request from the controller application.
