COMMUNICATION OF DIAGNOSTIC PARAMETERS OF A DATA MIRRORING CONFIGURATION FROM A STORAGE CONTROLLER TO A HOST

Abstract:

A storage controller is configured to communicate with a host over a first storage area network. Data controlled via the storage controller is mirrored to another storage controller over a second storage area network. The storage controller receives a request from the host to provide read diagnostic parameters of the second storage area network. In response to receiving the request, the storage controller secures the read diagnostic parameters of the second storage area network. The storage controller transmits the read diagnostic parameters of the second storage area network to the host.
