Will Target Session Identifying Handle (TSIH) be assigned in ascending numerical order each time they are connected?
Applies to
ONTAP 9
Answer
- Yes, the first session will be numbered sequentially.
- For new sessions, the bit position is marked occupied and that position is returned as TSIH.
- The bits are freed and reused when the session is freed.
- Use a loop to iterate over the bit positions.
- So in most cases it increases as the number of sessions increases.
- When a session is freed and a new session is created, the new session gets the freed old session TSIH.
