Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for data storage includes mapping a queue pair (QP) of a channel adapter to a specified Fiber Channel (FC) exchange for communication with a storage device. Upon receiving at the channel adapter from a host computer a storage command directed to the storage device, the storage command is executed by transmitting data packets over a switched network from the channel adapter to the storage device using the specified exchange and performing a remote direct memory access (RDMA) operation on the channel adapter using the mapped QP.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for data storage, comprising: allocating a plurality of queue pairs (QPs) of a channel adapter for Fibre Channel (FC) communication with a storage device; mapping one of the QPs in the plurality to each FC exchange to be used by the channel adapter in communicating with the storage device; receiving at the channel adapter from a host computer a storage command directed to the storage device; and executing the storage command by transmitt…
