Zusammenfassung:	A method for preparing a storage system to execute input-output commands (IOs) issued by a virtual machine running on a host computer. The method can comprise: receiving a request to prepare a metadata logical storage volume for the virtual machine; selecting a protocol endpoint configured in the storage system through which IOs for the metadata logical storage volume are to be received; receiving read IOs through the protocol endpoint and returning read data, the read data including identifiers for data logical storage volumes; receiving a request to prepare the data logical storage volumes for the virtual machine; and for each data logical storage volume, selecting a protocol endpoint configured in the storage system through which IOs for the logical storage volume are to be received.
