Abstract: Aspects disclosed in the detailed description include storage resource management in virtualized environments. In this regard, in one aspect, a virtualization layer is provided in a storage controller as an interface between one or more clients and a storage device. The storage controller is configured to trap storage resource requests from a client. A virtualized resource manager creates a virtual resource allocation that corresponds to a physical resource allocation in the storage device. The client receives the virtual resource allocation from the virtualization layer and subsequently accesses the virtual resource allocation through the storage controller as if the client were the sole user of the storage device. By trapping the storage resource requests at the storage controller and providing the virtual resource allocations to the one or more clients, it is possible to share compatibly the storage device among the one or more clients in a virtualized environment.

Abstract translation: 在详细描述中公开的方面包括虚拟化环境中的存储资源管理。 在这方面，在一方面，虚拟化层被提供在存储控制器中作为一个或多个客户机和存储设备之间的接口。 存储控制器被配置为从客户端捕获存储资源请求。 虚拟资源管理器创建与存储设备中的物理资源分配相对应的虚拟资源分配。 客户机从虚拟化层接收虚拟资源分配，随后通过存储控制器访问虚拟资源分配，就像客户端是存储设备的唯一用户一样。 通过在存储控制器处捕获存储资源请求并向一个或多个客户端提供虚拟资源分配，可以在虚拟化环境中的一个或多个客户端之间共享共享存储设备。
