摘要:
A mapping system and method that enables a secure reservation mode for a plurality of logical unit numbers of a storage system, generates a plurality of secret reservation keys, and instructs a distributed client to utilize at least one of the secret reservation keys to register with the storage system and to issue secure persistent reserves to the plurality of logical unit numbers.
摘要:
An abstraction for storage class memory is provided that hides the details of the implementation of storage class memory from a program, and provides a standard channel programming interface for performing certain actions, such as controlling movement of data between main storage and storage class memory or managing storage class memory.

A primary storage controller receives a write command from a host, wherein Fibre Channel frames corresponding to the write command have a priority indicated by the host. The primary storage controller performs a synchronous copy operation to copy data written by the write command from the primary storage controller to a secondary storage controller, wherein Fibre Channel frames corresponding to the synchronous copy operations have an identical priority to the priority indicated by the host.

Embodiments relate to facilitating a plurality of heterogeneous hosts to use a range of priority values. A method of facilitating a plurality of heterogeneous hosts to use a range of priority values is provided. The method retrieves a plurality of priority ranges from a plurality of network forwarding elements shared by a plurality of heterogeneous hosts. The network forwarding elements provide access to a set of storage devices that stores data for the plurality of heterogeneous hosts. The method generates, by a computer that comprises one of the heterogeneous hosts, a universal priority range from the plurality of priority ranges. The method maps a plurality of workloads performed by the computer to priority values in the universal priority range. The method sends the universal priority range to at least one other host of the heterogeneous hosts.

A method includes determining a reference I/O service time of an I/O operation on a server and measuring, with a processor of the server running a hypervisor configured to manage a plurality of logical partitions (LPARs), each LPAR running one of a plurality of instances of an operating system (O/S), an actual I/O service time of the I/O operation. The method also includes determining, by the processor, a delay time of virtualization on the server based on the reference I/O service time and the actual I/O service time.

A method includes configuring a processing circuit to perform: receiving a control word for an I/O operation, forwarding a transport command control block (TCCB) from the channel subsystem to a control unit, gathering data associated with the I/O operation, and transmitting the gathered data to the control unit in the I/O processing system. Gathering the data includes accessing entries of a list of storage addresses that collectively specifying the data. Based on an entry of the list comprising a not-set first flag and a corresponding first storage address, gathering data from a corresponding storage location, and based on an entry of the list comprising a set first flag and a corresponding second storage address, obtaining a next entry of the list from a second storage location.
