Storage Gateway Provisioning And Configuring

View page
US Patent:
7990994, Aug 2, 2011
Filed:
Oct 22, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/256646
Inventors:
Akram A. Abou-Emara - Mountain View CA, US
Harinder Singh Bhasin - Danville CA, US
Sriram Chidambaram - Santa Clara CA, US
Shreyas P. Gandhi - Sunnyvale CA, US
Nakul Pratap Saraiya - Palo Alto CA, US
Christopher Dean Youngworth - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
Habanero Holdings, Inc. - Saratoga CA
International Classification:
H04L 12/28
US Classification:
370431, 710104, 711141, 711147
Abstract:
Storage gateway provisioning, configuration, and management functions provide mechanisms to specify and manage parameters and operations associated with storage gateways. The parameters may include any combination of VLAN topology, zoning behavior, LUN masking, bandwidth, and priority. The parameters may also include path information describing initiator to target associations, enabling load-balancing aggregations and multipathing redundancy. Parameters may be specified at relatively low-levels, describing specific HW elements, or may be specified at relatively high-levels, describing desired bandwidth and redundancy requirements, with SW determining low-level HW assignments. Configuration and management functions enable dynamic modification of storage gateway parameters (such as bandwidth between selected initiator and target pairs). Management functions also enable dynamic switchover from a primary path to a secondary path with respect to a storage device.

Storage Gateway Configuring And Traffic Processing

US Patent:
8218538, Jul 10, 2012
Filed:
Nov 25, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/954655
Inventors:
Sriram Chidambaram - Santa Clara CA, US
Akram A. Abou-Emara - Mountain View CA, US
Harinder Singh Bhasin - Danville CA, US
Nakul Pratap Saraiya - Palo Alto CA, US
Christopher Dean Youngworth - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
Habanero Holdings, Inc. - Saratoga CA
International Classification:
H04L 12/50
H04L 12/28
H04L 12/56
H04Q 11/00
US Classification:
370386, 37039572, 370400
Abstract:
In one aspect, initial storage system control information is received, and in response a configuration of a storage interface is determined in accordance with the initial storage system control information. Then final storage system control information is accessed via the storage interface and the storage interface is reconfigured in accordance with the final storage system control information. In another aspect, one of a plurality of physical partitions of a physically partitionable symmetric multiprocessor executes a storage control process to control storage traffic, and another one of the physical partitions executes a program to process the storage traffic. The physical partitions are enabled to communicate the storage traffic at least in part via respective input/output controllers coupled to a switch fabric. The partitionable symmetric multiprocessor has programmatically configurable links for selectively isolating shared memory coherency and cache memory coherency transactions between at least some included processors.

Method And Apparatus For Sve Redundancy

US Patent:
20130121137, May 16, 2013
Filed:
Nov 16, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/297568
Inventors:
Chao Feng - San Jose CA, US
Samar Sharma - San Jose CA, US
Sriram Chidambaram - Sunnyvale CA, US
Raghavendra J. Rao - Bangalore, IN
Sanjay Hemant Sane - Fremont CA, US
Murali Basavaiah - Sunnyvale CA, US
Assignee:
CISCO TECHNOLOGY, INC. - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H04L 12/26
H04L 12/28
US Classification:
370221, 370392, 370254
Abstract:
Systems and methods for providing service virtualization endpoint (SVE) redundancy in a two-node, active-standby form. An active-standby pair of SVEs register with a cloud-centric-network control point (CCN-CP) as a single service node (SN) using a virtual IP address for both a control-plane and a data-plane. At any given time, only the active SVE is a host for the control-plane and the data-plane. When a failover happens, the hosting operation is taken over by the standby SVE, therefore the failover will be transparent to CCN-CP and the SN.

Storage Traffic Communication Via A Switch Fabric In Accordance With A Vlan

US Patent:
20130151646, Jun 13, 2013
Filed:
Jul 9, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/544696
Inventors:
Sriram Chidambaram - Santa Clara CA, US
Akram A. Abou-Emara - Mountain View CA, US
Harinder Singh Bhasin - Danville CA, US
Nakul Pratap Saraiya - Palo Alto CA, US
Christopher Dean Youngworth - San Jose CA, US
International Classification:
G06F 15/173
G06F 15/167
US Classification:
709213, 709223
Abstract:
A plurality of SMP modules and an IOP module communicate storage traffic via respective corresponding I/O controllers coupled to respective physical ports of a switch fabric by addressing cells to physical port addresses corresponding to the physical ports. One of the SMPs executes initiator software to partially manage the storage traffic and the IOP executes target software to partially manage the storage traffic. Storage controllers are coupled to the IOP, enabling communication with storage devices, such as disk drives, tape drives, and/or networks of same. Respective network identification registers are included in each of the I/O controller corresponding to the SMP executing the initiator software and the I/O controller corresponding to the IOP. Transport of the storage traffic in accordance with a particular VLAN is enabled by writing a same particular value into each of the network identification registers.

Storage Gateway Target For Fabric-Backplane Enterprise Servers

US Patent:
7843907, Nov 30, 2010
Filed:
Oct 22, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/256688
Inventors:
Akram A. Abou-Emara - Mountain View CA, US
Harinder Singh Bhasin - Danville CA, US
Sriram Chidambaram - Santa Clara CA, US
Nakul Pratap Saraiya - Palo Alto CA, US
Christopher Dean Youngworth - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
Habanero Holdings, Inc. - Saratoga CA
International Classification:
H04L 12/50
H04L 12/28
H04L 12/56
H04Q 11/00
US Classification:
370386, 37039572, 370400
Abstract:
Storage gateway remote and local access to storage devices is provided in part via a target implementing bandwidth-controlled access to the devices. The target may be iSCSI-compatible, and may also optionally implement protection, security, and performance features. The protection and security features include any combination of VLANs, zoning, Logical Unit Number (LUN) masking, and encryption. The performance features include any combination of HW-accelerated Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA), prioritized I/O operations, and service priority (such as strict priority and straight or weighted round-robin priorities). An initiator may be implemented in a Processor Memory Module (PMM) coupled to a switch fabric that is in turn coupled to a target implemented in a Fibre Channel Module (FCM). Storage traffic may be communicated as Small Computer System Interface (SCSI)- and SCSI over Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (iSCSI)-compatible information (data and commands) on the switch fabric via cellifying input/output interface devices.
