Methods and structure for serial attached scsi expanders that self-configure routing attributes of their ports

Methods and structure are provided for Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) expanders that program their own routing attributes. The structure includes a SAS expander (120) comprising multiple physical links with associated transceivers (PHYs), wherein the PHYs are configured into ports (122) at the expander,...

description Methods and structure are provided for Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) expanders that program their own routing attributes. The structure includes a SAS expander (120) comprising multiple physical links with associated transceivers (PHYs), wherein the PHYs are configured into ports (122) at the expander, and a memory (128) that defines routing attributes for each of the ports. The SAS expander also comprises a control unit (126) that is operable to detect a discovery Serial Management Protocol (SMP) request received at a port of the expander, and that is further operable to set the routing attribute for the port to subtractive routing responsive to detecting the SMP request.
