1. A Logically Composed System (LCS)/Non-Volatile Memory express (NVMe)-Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) storage target system, comprising:
a storage system including a storage controller;
a plurality of host systems that are coupled to the storage system; and
a resource management system that is coupled to the storage system and the plurality of host systems, wherein the resource management system is configured to:
provide a first Logically Composed System (LCS) using a first host system included in the plurality of host systems;
configure the first host system and the storage controller to present a first namespace provided by the storage system to the first LCS via at least one first Host NVMe Qualified Name (HNQN);
move the first LCS to a second host system included in the plurality of host systems;
remove the at least one first HNQN from the storage controller and the first host system; and
configure the second host system and the storage controller to present the first namespace provided by the storage system to the first LCS via at least one second HNQN that is different than the at least one first HNQN.
