    摘要: A method and system for an improved input/output (I/O) request quality of service (QoS) across multiple host I/O ports are disclosed. In one example, an I/O request associated with a classification parameter is received. The I/O request is generated by one of a plurality of host servers. Further, a classification value is determined based on the classification parameter by a host tagging agent residing one of the plurality of host servers. Furthermore, the classification value is associated with the I/O request by the host tagging agent. In addition, the I/O request is prioritized based on the classification value by a host port queuing manager and a host QoS controller. Based on the priority, the I/O request is sent to one of a plurality of target devices by the host port queuing manager and the host QoS controller.

    摘要: The present invention relates to managing I/O requests in a storage system. By dynamically changing the scheduling parameters to achieve optimal turn around time for I/O requests pending for processing at a component in the storage system. The scheduling parameters are changed based on a feedback mechanism. The turn around time of the I/O request are calculated as the ratio of I/O request processing rate and the average number of I/O requests in the component.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for determining device criticality in a computer system comprising the steps of building a component hierarchy graph using computer configuration information; labeling the nodes of component hierarchy graph with redundancy attribute; traversing the component hierarchy graph; and determining whether the device loses an access path by inspecting the redundancy attributes within the component hierarchy graph. Furthermore, one of a plurality of severity levels is assigned to each identified affected resource based on predetermined criteria. The severity levels include a low severity level, a medium severity level, and a high severity level. Each severity level represents degree of impact to the computer system if functionality of the identified affected resource became unavailable.
