Abstract:
Example embodiments relate to a mesh topology storage cluster with art array based manager. The mesh topology storage may include a first pair of controller nodes to access a first storage volume, and a second pair of controller nodes to access a second storage volume. The mesh topology storage may include an array based manager (ABM) associated with the first pair of controller nodes to monitor paths to the first storage volume via the first pair of controller nodes and to monitor paths to the second storage volume via the second pair of controller nodes. The mesh topology storage may include a passive component associated with the second pair of controller nodes to route ABM-type communications of the second pair of controller nodes to the ABM.
