Technical Examples

An integrated circuit implementing a storage-shelf router, used in combination with path controller cards and optionally with other storage-shelf routers, to interconnect SATA disks within a storage shelf or disk array to a high-bandwidth communications medium, such as an FC arbitrated loop. Various embodiments of the present invention provide a tunneling mechanism through the storage-shelf interface provided by one or more storage-shelf routers within a storage shelf to enable external processing entities to directly access various components within the storage shelf. In one embodiment of the present invention, a WRITE-BUFFER command and a READ-BUFFER command are added to the command interface supported by storage-shelf router. These commands are exchanged via the FCP protocol over the fiber channel in the same manner that SCSI commands are packaged within the FCP protocol. In certain cases, the information packaged within the WRITE-BUFFER and READ-BUFFER commands is directly exchanged with internal disk drives. In other cases, the information is extracted and written to various data structures maintained within internal components of the storage shelf. The WRITE-BUFFER and READ-BUFFER commands essential provide a breach or tunnel in the high-availability storage-shelf virtual interface provided by one or more storage-shelf routers within a storage shelf, allowing an external processing entity to exchange information through the tunnel without intervention by, but facilitated and supported by, the one or more storage-shelf routers within the high-availability storage shelf.
