A method is described. The method includes performing the following with a storage end transaction agent within a storage sled of a rack mounted computing system: receiving a request to perform storage operations with one or more storage devices of the storage sled, the request specifying an all-or-nothing semantic for the storage operations; recognizing that all of the storage operations have successfully completed; after all of the storage operations have successfully completed, reporting to a CPU side transaction agent that sent the request that all of the storage operations have successfully completed.
