Managing connectivity to synchronously replicated storage systems

Abstract:

Managing connectivity to synchronously replicated storage systems, including: identifying a plurality of storage systems across which a dataset is synchronously replicated; identifying a host that can issue I/O operations directed to the dataset; identifying a plurality of data communications paths between the host and the plurality of storage systems across which a dataset is synchronously replicated; identifying, from amongst the plurality of data communications paths between the host and the plurality of storage systems across which a dataset is synchronously replicated, one or more optimal paths; and issuing, to the host, an identification of the one or more optimal paths.
