Detailed description of the invention
Refering to shown in Fig. 1, it it is the present invention Organization Chart that transmits path optimizing system preferred embodiment.In the present embodiment, transmission path optimizing system 2 includes at least one main frame 10, switch 20, storage device 30, software defined network (Software Defined
Networking, SDN) server 40 and SDN controller 50 etc. (element number shown in Fig. 1 is only and represents).Storage device 30 includes multiple virtual disk 32.
SDN server 40 is each virtual disk 32 configuration read-write configuration file (I/O profile) of storage device 30.Storage device 30 connects SDN server 40, after checking, downloads the I/O profile of each virtual disk 32 correspondence from SDN server 40.Described I/O
Profile is by the Profile Manager (Profile in storage device 30
Not shown in Manager, Fig. 1) it is managed, Profile Manager periodically downloads up-to-date I/O profile from SDN server 40.
The transmission path that main frame 10 consists of one or more switches 20 is connected to storage device 30, to access the virtual disk 32 of storage device 30.Such as, Fig. 2 show from main frame H1It is connected to storage device S1Various transmission paths.Wherein, main frame H1It is connected to switch G0, storage device S1It is connected to switch XG3, switch G0With switch XG3Between via switch G1、G2、G3、XG0、XG1、XG2In one or more, one has 7 kinds of different transmission paths.
Storage device 30 is analyzed and is transmitted the iSCSI package to virtual disk 32 from main frame 10, calculates the relevant I/O data of this virtual disk 32.In the present embodiment, described I/O data are handling capacity (Throughput) and the number of times (Input/Output Operations Per Second, IOPS) being written and read operation per second.Storage device 30 checks whether the scsi command in iSCSI package is I/O order, if then adding up I/O command number and I/O data volume, thus is calculated the numerical value of described Throughput and IOPS.
Then, according to analysis result, storage device 30 judges that this virtual disk 32 is the need of change I/O profile.Each I/O
Throughput and the IOPS numerical range of different I/O ranks (high, medium and low) defined in profile.In the present embodiment, the I/O data in I/O profile good with this virtual disk 32 configured in advance for the I/O data calculated are compared by storage device 30 at predetermined time intervals (such as the t second), find out the I/O profile matched with this virtual disk 32.If this I/O matched
The I/O that profile and this virtual disk 32 use at present
Profile is different, then storage device 30 judges that this virtual disk 32 needs to change I/O profile.
When judging that this virtual disk 32 needs to change I/O profile, storage device 30 notifies that SDN server 40 changes the I/O profile of this virtual disk 32 correspondence, will be changed to this I/O matched by the I/O profile that uses at present of this virtual disk 32
profile。
SDN server 40 notifies that SDN controller 50 optimizes from the transmission path of main frame 10 to this virtual disk 32 according to the I/O profile after change.First SDN controller 50 finds out all possible transmission path from main frame 10 to this virtual disk 32, calculates the metric (Metric) in each transmission path the most respectively.In the present embodiment, Link State (Link State) Routing Protocol can be used to calculate the metric in each transmission path.Conventional link-state routing protocol includes ospf (Open
Shortest Path First, OSPF) and reinforced IGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol, EIGRP).For example, OSPF uses link cost as metric, if the speed of network segment is the fastest, bandwidth is the biggest, and the link cost calculated is the least.SDN controller 50 determines the I/O after this change according to considerations such as each transmission path in path, metric and load balancing
The transmission path that profile should use.
Such as, switch G in Fig. 20~G3For GbE switch, XG0~XG3For 10GbE switch, the link cost of GbE switch is 10, and the link cost of 10GbE switch is 1.Refering to shown in Fig. 3, transmit cumulative cost corresponding to path for each in Fig. 2 and associate I/O
profile.As transmitted path G0-XG0-XG1-XG2-XG3Corresponding cumulative cost is 10+1+1+1=13, the I/O of association
Profile is Profile 7,8,9.SDN controller 50, according to the result of calculation in Fig. 3, can be judged from main frame H1To storage device S1The transmission path of optimization.
After SDN controller 50 is optimized, the iSCSI package that main frame 10 sends via the transmission path after this optimization to storage device 30.
Refering to shown in Fig. 4, it it is the present invention flow chart that transmits method for optimizing route preferred embodiment.
Step S10, storage device 30 connects SDN server 40, after checking, downloads the I/O profile of each virtual disk 32 correspondence from SDN server 40.
Step S12, the transmission path that main frame 10 consists of one or more switches 20 is connected to storage device 30, to access the virtual disk 32 of storage device 30.
Step S14, storage device 30 is analyzed and is transmitted the iSCSI package to virtual disk 32 from main frame 10, calculates the relevant I/O data of this virtual disk 32.In the present embodiment, described I/O data are Throughput and IOPS.Storage device 30 checks whether the scsi command in iSCSI package is I/O order, if then adding up I/O command number and I/O data volume, thus is calculated the numerical value of described Throughput and IOPS.
Step S16, according to analysis result, storage device 30 judges that this virtual disk 32 is the need of change I/O profile.Throughput and the IOPS numerical range of different I/O ranks defined in each I/O profile.In the present embodiment, the I/O data in I/O profile good with this virtual disk 32 configured in advance for the I/O data calculated are compared by storage device 30 at predetermined time intervals, find out the I/O profile matched with this virtual disk 32.If this I/O matched
The I/O that profile and this virtual disk 32 use at present
Profile is different, then storage device 30 judges that this virtual disk 32 needs to change I/O profile.When judging that this virtual disk 32 needs to change I/O profile, perform step S18.When judging that this virtual disk 32 need not change I/O profile, return step S14.
Step S18, storage device 30 notifies that SDN server 40 changes the I/O profile of this virtual disk 32 correspondence, will be changed to this I/O profile matched by the I/O profile that uses at present of this virtual disk 32.
Step S20, SDN server 40 notifies that SDN controller 50 optimizes from the transmission path of main frame 10 to this virtual disk 32 according to the I/O profile after change.First SDN controller 50 finds out all possible transmission path from main frame 10 to this virtual disk 32, calculates the metric in each transmission path the most respectively.In the present embodiment, link-state routing protocol can be used to calculate the metric in each transmission path.Conventional link-state routing protocol includes OSPF and EIGRP.For example, OSPF uses link cost as metric, if the speed of network segment is the fastest, bandwidth is the biggest, and the link cost calculated is the least.SDN controller 50 determines the I/O after this change according to considerations such as each transmission path in path, metric and load balancing
The transmission path that profile should use.
Step S22, the iSCSI package that main frame 10 sends via the transmission path after this optimization to storage device 30.
Above example is only in order to illustrate technical scheme and unrestricted, although the present invention being described in detail with reference to preferred embodiment, it will be understood by those within the art that, technical scheme can be modified or equivalent, without deviating from the spirit and scope of technical solution of the present invention.
