Abstract

A method for constraining access to a storage system includes assigning a permanent bus identification to a storage device included in the storage system, creating a zone including a switch and the storage device included in the storage system such that data only passes to the storage device from the switch, and restricting access to the storage device from a server included in the storage system.
