Abstract
A method, information system, and computer readable storage medium verify predefined connectivity for I/O devices. Current predefined logical connection data and actual physical connection data is gathered. The predefined logical connection data and the actual physical connection data are formatted into a plurality of sortable tables. At least a portion of the predefined logical connection data is formatted into a predefined channels table and at least a portion of the actual physical connection data is formatted into a node information table. The portion of the predefined logical connection data is compared with the portion of the actual physical connection data. The portion of the predefined logical connection data is determined to substantially match/not match the portion of the actual physical connection data. At least one predefined logical connection associated with the predefined logical connection data that fails to substantially match the actual physical connection data is displayed to a user.
