Abstract:
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for simulating multiple hosts. An object module creates a plurality of host object instances. Each host object instance simulates a host to a storage device connection. In addition, each host object instance includes a unique identifier. A traffic generator serially establishes communications between each host object instance and a storage device using the unique identifier. The traffic generator serially establishes communications until a number of host object instances in communication with the storage device is greater than a host threshold. A verification module verifies that the storage device established communications with each host object instance according to a specified connection protocol. The verification module communicates a pass if each host object instance communication is verified.
