摘要： A shared file system for a group of host computer systems is upgraded in-place in a manner that the shared file system can remain online and accessible to the host computer systems. Each host computer system first loads a new file system driver that is backward compatible with a driver that is currently used by them to interact with the file system. Second, one of the host computer systems acquires locks to file system management data structures of the file system, upgrades the file system management data structures, and upon completion thereof, notifies the other host computer system that the upgrade to the file system management data structures is complete.

摘要： Metadata of a shared file in a clustered file system is changed in a way that ensures cache coherence amongst servers that can simultaneously access the shared file. Before a server changes the metadata of the shared file, it waits until no other server is attempting to access the shared file, and all I/O operations to the shared file are blocked. After writing the metadata changes to the shared file, local caches of the other servers are updated, as needed, and I/O operations to the shared file are unblocked.
摘要翻译：集群文件系统中的共享文件的元数据以确保可以同时访问共享文件的服务器之间的高速缓存一致性的方式进行更改。在服务器更改共享文件的元数据之前，它等待直到其他服务器尝试访问共享文件，并且所有对共享文件的I / O操作都被阻止。将元数据更改写入共享文件后，根据需要更新其他服务器的本地缓存，并解除对共享文件的I / O操作。

摘要： Multiple servers sharing a distributed file system are used to perform copies of regions of a source file in parallel from a source storage unit to corresponding temporary files at a destination storage unit. These temporary files are then merged or combined into a single file at the destination storage unit in a way that preserves the inode structure and attributes of the source file. A substantial speedup is obtained by copying regions of the file in parallel.
摘要翻译：共享分布式文件系统的多个服务器用于从源存储单元并行地执行源文件区域的副本到目的地存储单元处的相应临时文件。然后将这些临时文件以保存源文件的inode结构和属性的方式合并或组合到目标存储单元中的单个文件中。通过并行复制文件的区域可以获得实质的加速。

摘要： A network-based method for managing locks in a shared file system (SFS) for a group of hosts that does not require any configuration to identify a server for managing locks for the SFS. Each host in the group carries out the steps of checking a predetermined storage location to determine whether there is a host ID written in the predetermined location. If there is no host ID written in the predetermined location, the first host to notice this condition writes its host ID in the predetermined location to identify itself as the server for managing locks. If there is a host ID written in the predetermined location, the host ID of the server for managing locks is maintained in local memory. When the host needs to perform IO operations on a file of the SFS, it communicates with the server for managing locks over the network using the host ID of the server for managing locks to obtain a lock to the file.
摘要翻译：一种基于网络的方法，用于管理不需要任何配置的一组主机的共享文件系统（SFS）中的锁来标识用于管理SFS的锁的服务器。组中的每个主机执行检查预定存储位置以确定是否存在在预定位置中写入的主机ID的步骤。如果在预定位置没有写入主机ID，则注意到该状态的第一主机将其主机ID写入预定位置，以将其自身标识为用于管理锁的服务器。如果在预定位置写入了主机ID，则用于管理锁定的服务器的主机ID被保存在本地存储器中。当主机需要对SFS文件执行IO操作时，它将使用服务器的主机ID通过网络与服务器进行通信，以管理锁定，以获取锁定文件的锁定。

摘要： A method of acquiring a lock by a node, on a shared resource in a system of a plurality of interconnected nodes, is disclosed. Each node that competes for a lock on the shared resource maintains a list of locks currently owned by the node. A lock metadata is maintained on a shared storage that is accessible to all nodes that may compete for locks on shared resources. A heartbeat region is maintained on a shared resource corresponding to each node so nodes can register their liveness. A lock state is maintained in the lock metadata in the shared storage. A lock state may indicate lock held exclusively, lock free or lock in managed mode. If the lock is held in the managed mode, the ownership of the lock can be transferred to another node without a use of a mutual exclusion primitive such as the SCSI reservation.

摘要： Free storage blocks previously allocated to a logical block device are released back to an underlying storage system supporting the logical block device in a manner that does not conflict with write operations that may be issued to the free storage blocks at about the same time. According to a first technique, write operations on the same storage blocks to be released are paused until the underlying storage system has completed the releasing operation or, if the write operations are issued earlier than when the underlying storage system actually performs the releasing operation, such storage blocks are not released. According to a second technique, a special file is allocated the free storage blocks, which are then made available for safe releasing.
摘要翻译：先前分配给逻辑块设备的空闲存储块以与同时发布到空闲存储块的写入操作不冲突的方式被释放回支持逻辑块设备的底层存储系统。根据第一技术，暂停对要释放的相同存储块的写入操作，直到底层存储系统已经完成释放操作，或者如果写入操作早于底层存储系统实际执行释放操作时发出，则存储块未被释放。根据第二种技术，将特殊文件分配给空闲的存储块，然后使其可用于安全释放。

摘要： A virtualized computer system employs a virtual disk with a space efficient (SE) format to store data for virtual machines running therein. The SE format allows for defragmentation at a fine-grained level, where unused, stale, and zero blocks are moved to the end of the virtual disk so that the virtual disk may be truncated and space reclaimed by the underlying storage system as part of a special defragmentation process.

摘要： A method for performing I/O operations on a file stored in a file system utilizing a shared data storage system and accessible by a plurality of host computers is disclosed. A host computer receives from a process executing on it, a request to read data stored in the file. The host computer then requests the data stored in the file without acquiring a lock from the file system. The host computer also maintains a timeout value associated with the file while reading the data. The host computer receives at least a portion of the data prior to an expiration of time, and if all the data has not been received before the expiration of time, it then assesses whether another of the host computers has acquired a lock on the file, and, if so, invalidates the received data without providing it to the requesting process.

摘要： Read-only access to data in a file system on shared storage is obtained. The data may be in a file in the file system and the file may be protected by a lock, so that the lock must be acquired to enable read/write access to the file. A host may be allowed to open the file for non-exclusive read only access by establishing a limited lease on the file, without acquiring the lock for the file. In some embodiments, the files for which such a limited lease may be obtained may be restricted based on one or more criteria, such as the type of file and/or the length of the file. In some embodiments, such limited leases may only be retained for a certain period of time, which may be referred to as a timeout period. In some embodiments, a limited lease may be extended beyond the timeout period if one or more conditions are met. In some embodiments, there is a state machine for enabling the limited lease on the file.
摘要翻译：获取对共享存储中的文件系统中的数据的只读访问。数据可能在文件系统中的文件中，并且文件可能受到锁的保护，因此必须获取锁以启用对文件的读/写访问。可以允许主机通过在文件上建立有限的租约而不获取文件的锁定来打开文件以进行非排他性的只读访问。在一些实施例中，可以基于一个或多个标准（例如文件的类型和/或文件的长度）来限制可以获得这样的有限租赁的文件。在一些实施例中，这种有限租赁只能保留一段时间，这可以被称为超时期限。在一些实施例中，如果满足一个或多个条件，则有限租约可以延长超过超时期限。在一些实施例中，存在用于启用文件上的有限租约的状态机。

摘要： A data center comprising plural computer hosts and a storage system external to said hosts is disclosed. The storage system includes storage blocks for storing tangibly encoded data blocks. Each of said hosts includes a deduplicating file system for identifying and merging identical data blocks stored in respective storage blocks into one of said storage blocks so that a first file exclusively accessed by a first host of said hosts and a second file accessed exclusively by a second host of said hosts concurrently refer to the same one of said storage blocks.
