Abstract
In accordance with some embodiments, identification of transport streams facilitates the classification of those streams. Classification of those streams in turn enables a classification to be matched to a quality of service policy. Thus, quality of service policies may be enforced so that different streams can be afforded appropriate quality of service.
Claims30
A method comprising:
- identifying, with an identifier, an input/output request from a host computer system to a target storage system;
- classifying the request using said identifier;
- assigning a quality of service policy to the request based on a request classification;
- and
- transmitting the request from said host computer system to said target storage system using the assigned quality of service policy.
2 more elements
A nontransitory computer readable medium storing instructions to enable a processor to:
- identify, with an identifier, an input/output request from a host computer system to a target storage system;
- classify the request using said identifier;
- assign a quality of service policy to the request based on a request classification;
- and
- transmit the request from said host computer system to said target storage system using the assigned quality of service policy.
2 more elements
An apparatus comprising:
- a controller to identify, with an identifier, an input/output request from a host computer system to a target storage system, classify the request using said identifier, assign a quality of service policy to the request based on a request classification, and transmit the request from said host computer system to said target storage system using the assigned quality of service policy;
- and
- a memory coupled to said controller.
