    Patent number: 7376898
    Abstract: A processing device receives a selection of at least one host resource associated with a storage area network as selected by a network manager. In addition to receiving the selection of the at least one host resource, the processing device receives a selection of at least one storage parameter associated with the storage area network. The selection of the at least one storage parameter includes a selection of a vendor type of a storage system resource of the storage area network. Based on the selection information, the network management application correlates the selection of the at least one host resource with the selection of the vendor type to identify: i) storage devices of the storage system resource corresponding to the at least one storage parameter, and ii) access control rights of the at least one host resource with respect to the storage devices.
