Abstract
A method of registering a host bus port (HBP) of a host computer (host) at a storage bus port (SBP) of a data storage array over a storage network includes (a) acquiring a configuration instruction directing the host to process registration messages from an event processing engine, (b) receiving a registration message from the event processing engine indicating that the HBP needs to be registered with the SBP, the registration message having been generated by the event processing engine in response to receiving an event notification message indicating that a data path across the storage network between the HBP and the SBP is available, and (c) in response to receiving the registration message, processing the registration message by registering the HBP with the SBP by sending a registration command from the HBP to the SBP across the storage network, the registration command including registration information associated with the HBP.
