Abstract: In one example, a method for assigning zone groups to a physical storage enclosure includes comparing a first signature assigned to a number of first storage devices in an online physical storage enclosure against a second signature assigned to a number of second storage devices in a first offline physical storage enclosure of a number of offline physical storage enclosures. The method may further include, in response to a determination that the first signature matches the second signature, copying zone groups from the first offline physical storage enclosure associated with the second signature to the online physical storage enclosure.

Abstract: Provide access to storage resources of a storage device over a data storage fabric. Allow a zone manager of a first switch to assign a zone group to one of a plurality of phys of an expander of the storage device to allow the first switch to access storage resources of the storage device. If status of the phy that is assigned a zone group indicates a disconnection condition with the first switch, then configure the zone group of the expander of the storage device to prevent access to the storage resources of the storage device. If after the disconnection condition, the status of the phy indicates a reconnection condition with a second switch, then allow a zone manager of the second switch to assign a zone group to the phy to allow the second switch to access storage resources of the storage device.
