ABSTRACT:
A method for use in a network having a plurality of host computers, at least one communication control processor (CCP) commonly connected to the host computers, and a plurality of resources connected to the CCP. According to the method, if a resource is to be added to or deleted from the network, an operator designates a reconfiguration directory including at least one reconfiguration designating data for defining a relation between the network and a resource to be changed. Each host computer is assigned a reconfiguration command. In response to this reconfiguration command, each host computer reconfigures its own network configuration definition information in accordance with the defined reconfiguration designating data within the designated reconfiguration directory. If the designated reconfiguration directory contains the reconfiguration designating data related to a resource to be connected to the CCP, a host computer operating as a master, issues a control command to the CCP in conformity with the reconfiguration designating data in order to reconfigure the network configuration definition information of the CCP.
