ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a mechanism and method for object linking. According to an aspect of one embodiment of the invention, name linking information is co-located with the storage object, rather than being stored only at a computer node. By maintaining name liking information with a storage object, that name linking information can still be used to correctly associate an alternate name with that storage object, regardless of configuration changes that move or delete storage objects in the system and regardless of any changes to internal identifiers for that storage object.
