Estimating the term…
A computer system includes a first server including a first data management module and a second server including a second data management module, and a first and second storage controller. The first and second storage controllers are interconnected by a network configured for reliable data multicasting. The computer system further includes a cross system manager for controlling one or more core storage functions on each of the first and second storage controllers. The computer system further includes computer program instructions to, responsive to a core storage function triggered by the cross system manager: Create a multicast group for each of the first server and the second server in the network, wherein the multicast group is created by a reliable multicast mechanism, and Multicast data write operations of each of the first server and the second server to the first storage controller and the second storage controller of the multicast group.
A computer-implemented method for updating data objects on a system comprising one or more computer processors, one or more computer readable storage media, a first server comprising a first data management module and a second server comprising a second data management module, a first storage controller and a second storage controller, wherein the first storage controller and the second storage controller are interconnected by a network, the network being configured for reliable data multicasting, and a cross system manager, wherein the cross system manager controls one or more core storage functions on each of the first storage controller and the second storage controller, the method comprising:
