Abstract
Generating a repository template of a repository of data for a storage area network (SAN) management tool is disclosed. The repository will hold data describing SAN elements and configurations, and will be stored on a host. A configuration file is updated to include current configuration data for the repository, and includes specifications for a set of new schemas that define structures within the repository. A set of new schemas is created from those specifications. Seed data that defines initial information for the repository is copied to the host. New schemas are initialized with the seed data. A repository template is generated from the created set of new schemas and the seed data, from which one or more repositories may be created to hold SAN data.
