摘要： The storage system exports logical storage volumes that are provisioned as storage objects. These storage objects are accessed on demand by connected computer systems using standard protocols, such as SCSI and NFS, through logical endpoints for the protocol traffic that are configured in the storage system. When a virtual machine is provisioned, logical storage volumes include a logical metadata storage volume and logical data storage volumes. The logical metadata storage volume stores metadata for the virtual machine such as configuration and log files, swap file, and disk descriptor files. Each disk descriptor file is provided for one logical data storage volume and stores metadata about the logical data storage volume such as size and unique identifying data.

摘要： The storage system exports logical storage volumes that are provisioned as storage objects. These storage objects are accessed on demand by connected computer systems using standard protocols, such as SCSI and NFS, through logical endpoints for the protocol traffic that are configured in the storage system. Prior to issuing input-output commands to a logical storage volume, the computer system sends a request to bind the logical storage volume to a protocol endpoint. In response a first identifier for the protocol endpoint and a second identifier for the logical storage volume is returned. Different second identifiers may be generated for different logical storage volumes even though the same protocol endpoint is being used. Therefore, a single protocol endpoint may serve as a gateway for multiple logical storage volumes.
