    摘要: Embodiments of the invention relate to a method for discovering a network address translation (NAT) network connection with a data storage system. The method includes establishing, by a client device, a network connection with the data storage system via a target network address associated with the data storage system, retrieving over the network connection, by the client device, a set of private network addresses associated with a set of storage processors of the data storage system, comparing, by the client device, each private network address of the set of private network addresses associated with the set of storage processors with the target network address, and when the target network address is absent from the set of private network addresses associated with the set of storage processors as a result of the comparison, detecting, the network connection as being configured as a NAT mode network connection with the data storage system.

    摘要: Methods and systems are disclosed that generally involve handling logins for a user accessing a plurality of computer resources. In one embodiment, once a user enters login information for a first computer resource, the login information can be stored and/or re-used to access a plurality of other computer resources without the user having to re-enter the login information for each resource. The methods and systems can involve a software framework in communication with various plugins, each plugin including one or more login candidates representing a type of a computer resource. The plugins and/or login candidates can allow the framework to pluggably and dynamically recognize and log into various types of computer resources.

    摘要: A heterogeneous data storage environment includes a first and second data storage system where the first data storage system includes management functionalities that are distinct from the management functionalities included by the second data storage system. A storage system management device is displays an environment management interface that dynamically changes based upon a user's need to manage either the first or second storage system. For example the storage system management device provides a default environment management interface for the first data storage system that includes a custom management display that allows the user to access the management functionalities associated with the first data storage system. The storage system management device dynamically changes the content of the environment management interface to provide a custom management display associated with the user selection of a second data storage system.
