Abstract:
Presented herein are techniques for collecting and delivering consolidated nameserver information in a merged Fiber (Fiber) Channel (FC) fabric. A principal switch in a merged FC fabric collects information from one or more subordinate switches. The principal switch consolidates the information collected from the subordinate switches to generate consolidated nameserver information. The principal switch then pushes the consolidated nameserver information from the principal switch to each of the subordinate switches.
