  • Patent number: 11212209
    Abstract: A network switching environment includes a network switch coupled to a port extension module by one or more network cables, and a management resource coupled to the switch and the port extension module. The configurations of the network switch and the port extension module may be dynamically controlled by a management resource to adjust to changes in the maximum bandwidth provided by the one or more network cables. The management resource may implement the network switch and port extension module configurations according to a predetermined target configuration and the connection configuration of the network switch and the port extension module.

  • Patent number: 8046460
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a server is automatically deployed using a pre-provisioned logical volume LV. A first world wide name WWN1 is associated 320 with a logical volume LV1 associated with a disk array controller 260. A second world wide name WWN1, which is assigned to a server S1, is received 335 at the disk array controller 260. If 340 the first world wide name WWN1 is the same as the second world wide name WWN1, the server S1 is enabled 350 to access the logical volume LV1. The first and second world wide names are not required to be assigned to any server S1, S2 at the time that the first world wide name is associated with the logical volume.
