Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for monitoring and recovering from internal and external network connectivity losses. The systems and applications implement algorithms that mark sets of network ports as healthy or degraded, and this way the filer can recover from and compensate for sets that are not reachable, based on the diagnostics performed on the internal and external reachability of the set and/or individual network ports as disclosed herein
Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for a clustered storage system. The method assigns a network access address to a virtual network interface card (VNIC) at a first cluster node of a clustered storage system, where a physical network interface card assigned to the network access address is managed by a second cluster node of the clustered storage system; and use the VNIC by a virtual storage server at the first cluster node to communicate on behalf of the second cluster node.

Abstract:
Methods and systems for managing access to virtual storage systems is provided. A listening socket is configured for an application for detecting communication for a plurality of virtual storage systems presented by a clustered storage system having a plurality of nodes. A packet is received at a node of the clustered storage system from a client system for a virtual storage system from among the plurality of virtual storage systems. An identifier for the virtual storage system for which the packet is destined is determined. A connection socket is cloned for the virtual storage system such that any other packet for a same connection and for the virtual storage system can be forwarded to the virtual storage system. Thereafter, the packet is processed by the application on behalf of the virtual storage system.

Abstract:
Methods and systems for setting up routing in a clustered storage system are provided. The method includes generating a global routing data structure having a plurality of default routes for a clustered storage system having a plurality of nodes; creating a logical interface for a virtual storage system presented to a client system for using storage space at the clustered storage system managed by one of the plurality of nodes; examining the global routing data structure by the plurality of nodes for adding a route for the logical interface when a gateway address of the route is on a same subnet as the logical interface; and storing the route in a routing data structure for the node that manages the logical interface for the virtual storage system.
