Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device, a system, and a method for distributing a configuration parameter for a storage device from one or more data stores of configuration parameters.
SOLUTION: The device comprises one or more storage devices which are configured so as to store data, a first DHCP server which is configured so as to process a DHCP message, and redirect the communication regarding a configuration parameter for the storage devices to a second DHCP server, and a configuration data store which is configured so as to store the configuration parameter for the storage devices. The second DHCP server may be configured so as to process the DHCP message and retrieve the configuration parameter for the storage devices from the configuration data store. In some embodiments, each storage initiator communicates with the DHCP server, receives the configuration parameter like an iSCSI parameter, and provides the configuration parameter to one or more storage devices.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily and speedily allot resources needed for multi-layered PCI bus architecture by grouping classified lists by first-fit algorithm and determining resource allotment to respective buses in bus layers. SOLUTION: A host processor 12 executes proper commands to determine a request to allot resources to respective devices. After this request is determined, requests of respective PCI (peripheral component interconnect) buses 19, 23, 25, 29, 36, and 39 in layers are determined. Then the buses 29 and 39 of the lowest order in the layers are discriminated and then resource allotment request of the device connected to the specific bus 29 or 39 of the lowest order is grouped into the request of the whole buses. This grouping acquires the resource request of the whole buses by using the first-fit algorithm. Consequently, the resources needed for the multi-layered PCI bus architecture can easily and speedily be allotted.

Abstract: The system resources in a computer system having a multi-level, hierarchical bus structure are allocated by determining the address resource requirement of the devices and lower level PCI-PCI bridges, if any, subordinate to every higher level bridge by receiving address resource requirement information from each device and each lower level bridge, if any. Then, the address value of resource address requirement of the devices and lower level bridges requiring specific address allocation are sorted in an ascending order. Next, the size of resource address requirement of the devices and lower level bridges with non-specified address allocation is sorted in an descending order. Finally, the sorted list is grouped by an first fit algorithm to determine the resource allocation for each device within the bus hierarchy.
