Abstract:
A method for adaptive offloading of data movement from a computer system includes identifying performance results from a plurality of SCSI extended copy (XCOPY) operations associated with a storage unit, each XCOPY operation of the plurality of XCOPY operations including one or more parameters. The method also includes selecting, based on the identified performance results, one or more XCOPY parameters for the storage unit from the plurality of XCOPY operations. The method further includes forming an XCOPY operation associated with the storage unit, the XCOPY operation including the one or more selected XCOPY parameters. The method also includes transmitting the XCOPY operation to the storage unit.
