ABSTRACT:
A modular fibre channel information handling system includes a storage processor and multiple associated fibre channel data storage enclosures. The storage processor and the fibre channel data storage enclosures are connected by a fibre channel storage loop. The storage processor includes an identification engine operable to assign device addresses to the associated storage devices and an aggregation engine that is able to selectively aggregate the shelf IDs of data storage enclosures that have been selected to be aggregated.
