    • Disclosed are methods and apparatus for data tapping within a storage area network (SAN) and providing tapped data to a third party device, such as an appliance. In general, mechanisms are provided in a SAN to allow a data tap of data flowing between an initiator and a target. In one implementation, a data virtual target (DVT) (314) in created in a network device (304) to intercept data sent by a specific initiator (302) to a specific logical unit of a specific target (306). The data or a copy of the data (316) is sent to both the specific logical unit of the specific target and to an appliance. The data routing may be accomplished by use of a virtual initiator (VI) (313), which is configured to send the data (or a copy of the data) to the specific target and the appliance. In a transparent mode of operations, the DVT has a same PWWN (port world wide name) and FCID (fibre channel identifier) as the specific target. In a first proxy mode of operation, the DVT has a different PWWN and FCID than the specific target. In a second proxy mode of operation, the DVT has a same PWWN and different FCID than the specific target.
    • 公开了用于在存储区域网络(SAN)内进行数据分接并将分接数据提供给第三方设备(例如设备)的方法和设备。 通常,SAN中提供了机制以允许在发起者和目标之间流动数据的数据抽头。 在一个实现中,在网络设备(304)中创建的数据虚拟目标(DVT)(314)被创建以截取由特定发起者(302)发送到特定目标(306)的特定逻辑单元的数据。 数据或数据的副本(316)被发送到特定目标的特定逻辑单元和设备。 数据路由可以通过使用虚拟启动器(VI)(313)来完成,该虚拟启动器被配置为将数据(或数据的副本)发送到特定目标和设备。 在透明操作模式下,DVT具有与特定目标相同的PWWN(端口全球名称)和FCID(光纤通道标识符)。 在第一代理操作模式中,DVT具有与特定目标不同的PWWN和FCID。 在第二代理操作模式中,DVT具有与特定目标相同的PWWN和不同的FCID。

    • A method and apparatus to improve the performance of a SCSI write over a high latency network. The apparatus includes a first Switch close to the initiator in a first SAN and a second Switch close to the target in a second SAN. In various embodiments, the two Switches are border switches connecting their respective SANs to a relatively high latency network between the two SANs. In addition, the initiator can be either directly connected or indirectly connected to the first Switch in the first SAN. The target can also be either directly or indirectly connected to the second Switch in the second SAN. During operation, the method includes the first Switch sending Transfer Ready (Xfr_rdy) frame(s) based on buffer availability to the initiating Host in response to a SCSI Write command from the Host directed to the target. The first and second Switches then coordinate with one another by sending Transfer Ready commands to each other independent of the target's knowledge. The second switch buffers the data received from the Host until the target indicates it is ready to receive the data. Since the Switches send frames to the initiating Host independent of the target, the Switches manipulate the OX_ID and RX_ID fields in the Fibre Channel header of the various commands associated with the SCSI Write. The OX_ID and RX_ID fields are manipulated so as to trap the commands and so that the Switches can keep track of the various commands associated with the SCSI write.
    • 一种通过高延迟网络提高SCSI写入性能的方法和装置。 该设备包括靠近第一SAN中的发起者的第一交换机和在第二SAN中靠近目标的第二交换机。 在各种实施例中,两个交换机是将它们各自的SAN连接到两个SAN之间相对较高延迟的网络的边界交换机。 此外,启动器可以直接连接或间接连接到第一个SAN中的第一个交换机。 目标也可以直接或间接地连接到第二个SAN中的第二个交换机。 在操作期间,该方法包括响应于从指向目标的主机的SCSI写入命令,基于发起主机的缓冲区可用性的第一个交换机发送传输就绪(Xfr_rdy)帧。 第一个和第二个交换机然后通过发送传输就绪命令相互协调,独立于目标的知识。 第二个交换机缓存从主机接收的数据,直到目标指示它准备好接收数据。 由于交换机将发送帧发送到独立于目标的发起主机,交换机将处理与SCSI写入相关联的各种命令的光纤通道报头中的OX_ID和RX_ID字段。 操作OX_ID和RX_ID字段以捕获命令,以便交换机可以跟踪与SCSI写入相关联的各种命令。
