    • Interfaces to storage devices that employ storage space optimization technologies, such as thin provisioning, are configured to enable the benefits gained from such technologies to be sustained. Such an interface may be provided in a hypervisor of a virtualized computer system to enable the hypervisor to discover features of a logical unit number (LUN), such as whether or not the LUN is thinly provisioned, and also in a virtual machine (VM) of the virtualized computer system to enable the VM to discover features of a virtual disk, such as whether or not the virtual disk is thinly provisioned. The discovery of these features enables the hypervisor or the VM to instruct the underlying storage device to carry out certain operations such as an operation to deallocate blocks previously allocated to a logical block device, so that the storage device can continue to benefit from storage space optimization technologies implemented therein.
    • 使用存储空间优化技术(如精简配置)的存储设备的接口被配置为使得能够持续从这些技术获得的益处。 这样的接口可以被提供在虚拟化计算机系统的管理程序中,以使虚拟机管理程序能够发现逻辑单元号(LUN)的特征,诸如LUN是否被薄配置,以及虚拟机(VM) 的虚拟化计算机系统以使VM能够发现虚拟磁盘的特征,诸如虚拟磁盘是否被薄配置。 这些特征的发现使得虚拟机管理程序或虚拟机能够指示底层存储设备执行某些操作,例如以前分配给逻辑块设备的块的操作,以便存储设备可以继续受益于存储空间优化 其中实施的技术。
