The invention provides a kind of storage LAN (Storage Area Network, the configuration information of dual controller SAN) (configuration information) method for synchronous, it is applicable to that having one of one first controller and one second controller stores LAN.
Please refer to Figure 1A, it is the block diagram for the storage LAN of one enforcement example according to the present invention.
At least one user side 20 can pass through internet Wide Area Networks such as (Internet), and (Wide Area Network WAN) is connected at least one server 12 of SAN 10.SAN 10 interior also comprises first controller 14, second controller 16 and a storage device 18.User side 20 is by internet and SAN 10 enough accessing storing devices 18, and the storage device 18 that is connected to server 12 is considered as direct connection by user side 20.For instance, for user side 20, storage device 18 similarly is the hard disk that server 12 itself is had.And in fact, server 12 is one and internal network accessing storing devices 18 by first controller 14 and second controller 16.
Wherein SAN 10 is a kind of framework with internal network Connection Service device 12 and storage device 18, makes that server 12 can be at high speed with data block (block) level access storage device 18.Server 12 can for example be the file server of e-mail server, database, high usage.And storage device 18 can be single storage facilities, also the set that a plurality of storage facilitiess is coupled together.For example storage device 18 can be disk array (Redundant Array of Independent Disks, RAID) or optical recording storehouse (Optical jukebox is called the CD cabinet again).Between a plurality of storage devices 18 then available fiber channel modes such as (fiber channel) link together.
Among the SAN 10, server 12 is connected to storage device 18 by internal network; Wherein internal network needs to support the storage communications protocol that SAN 10 is adopted.Fibre channel protocol (Fibre ChannelProtocol for example, FCP) or internet small computer system interface (Internet Small ComputerSystem Interface, iSCSI is called IP-SAN again) be the communications protocol that common SAN 10 is suitable for.
First controller 14, second controller 16 and storage device 18 are can be configured among the same calculator system.Storage device 18 hard disk of calculator system for this reason for example, and first controller 14 and the second controller 16 double-core processor of calculator system for this reason respectively.Yet the present invention is not limited to this.According to an enforcement example, first controller 14, second controller 16 and storage device 18 also can be disposed at respectively among the different main frames (calculator system).
16 of first controller 14 and second controllers Ji Lu not have a configuration information, to preserve the situation that storage device 18 is configured.For example, storage device 18 can be an entity hard disk, and is divided into a plurality of virtual hard disks for user side 20 uses in response to the requirement of server 12.Then the content of configuration information can comprise each virtual hard disk itself in the storage device 18 relevant information, with the information of virtual hard disk corresponding server 12 or user side 20 or with virtual hard disk in the relevant information of file deposited.In more detail, configuration information can comprise the IP address of the internet communication protocol address (Internet Protocol Address, IP address) of title, the corresponding server 12 of the title of hard disk title, hard disk size, spendable remaining space, corresponding server 12, corresponding user side 20, corresponding user side 20 or the quantity of documents of storage.
When server 12 needed the configuration of change storage device 18, server 12 sent a config update requirement.Wherein config update requires to comprise that a newly-increased requirement, a modification require or an erasure request.With above-mentioned storage device 18 is divided into the example of a plurality of virtual hard disks, server 12 can require to cut apart the virtual hard disk that makes new advances, revise the hard disk size of original virtual hard disk or delete original virtual hard disk by config update from storage device 18.
In this enforcement example, the dual controller of SAN 10 (i.e. first controller 14 and second controller 16) can put 12 to service simultaneously provides service.First controller 14 and second controller 16 are accepted the config update requirement of 12 pairs of storage devices 18 of server simultaneously, and require requirement and the renewal configuration information of renewal to storage device 18 according to config update.That is to say that first controller 14 and second controller 16 are to dispose abreast and accessing storing device 18.
Please be simultaneously with reference to Figure 1B, it is for another implements the block diagram of the storage LAN of example according to the present invention.
Different with the enforcement example of Figure 1A be in, first controller 14 in this enforcement example and second controller 16 are not to provide service to server 12 simultaneously.For instance, first controller 14 and second controller 16 can be a master-slave mode (master-slave) framework.The config update requirement that SAN 10 China National Instruments Import ﹠ Export Corporations are accepted with first controller 14 and processing server 12 is sent, and with the controller of second controller 16 as backup usefulness.When first controller 14 takes place that deadlock wait graunches and can't normal operation the time, just switches second controller 16 and replace first controller 14 that service is provided, to reach high availability (Highavailability, HA) service characteristic such as grade.
Then please refer to Fig. 2, it is the flow chart for the configuration information method for synchronous of the dual controller of the storage LAN of one enforcement example according to the present invention.
At first the config update that is sent with first controller, 14 reception servers 12 requires (step S100), and first controller 14 confirms whether second controller 16 is in the state (step S101) of survival (alive, meaning is normal operation) again.Confirm second controller 16 for after the normal operation, backed up the original configuration information (step S102) of first controller 14 itself.That is to say that first controller 14 backs up existing configuration information.
Then, first controller 14 upgrades the configuration information (step S103) of first controller 14 according to the config update requirement.In more detail, first controller 14 is carried out the content that config update requires, and for example increases, modifies or deletes the virtual hard disk of storage device 18.And after storage device 18 configuration successfuls, the state of first controller, 14 execution in step S103 after with the configuration of corresponding storage device 18 that configuration information update is made.
When the configuration information update of first controller 14 is successful,, upgrade the configuration information (step S104) of second controller 16 according to the config update requirement.Since 14 executeds of first controller cross the config update requirement content, second controller 16 need not repeat config update, and can directly carry out step S104.At last, when the configuration information of second controller 16 also upgrades when successful, send a configuration successful signal (step S105) and give server 12 with repayment.The configuration successful signal for example can be passback value (return value), the parameter (parameter) that replies to a configurator of server 12 or interrupt (interrupt).
Carry out after the config update, the configuration information of first controller 14 and second controller 16 is all upgraded by correspondence.That is to say that the configuration information of dual controller is to be updated synchronously.Thus, just can guarantee the consistency of the configuration information of dual controller.Therefore for example meet accident and can't provide when serving when first controller 14, second controller 16 has known clearly all configuration states on the present storage device 18, and can directly take over the required responsible work of all dual controllers.Again for example when first controller 14 needs that because of load (load) is overweight the part job sharing given second controller 16, second controller 16 also can be directly handled the work that first controller 14 originally is responsible for according to the configuration information of self.
Please be simultaneously with reference to Fig. 3 A and Fig. 3 B, it is for another implements the flow chart of the configuration information method for synchronous of the dual controller of the storage LAN of example according to the present invention.
With Fig. 2 similarly, first controller 14 receives config updates and requires (step S110), and judges second controller 16 whether survive (step S111).First controller 14 is the original configuration information (step S112) of backup oneself then; Execution is to the config update of storage device 18; And upgrade the configuration information (step S113) of first controller 14.Upgraded after the configuration information of first controller 14, judged whether the configuration information update success (step S114) of first controller 14.When the configuration information update of first controller 14 is successful, can back up the original configuration information (step S115) of second controller 16 earlier, upgrade the configuration information (step S116) of second controller 16 again.
Then judge whether the configuration information update success (step S117) of second controller 16.When the configuration information update of second controller 16 was successful, second controller 16 can be repaid and give first controller 14, to delete the configuration information (step S118) of first controller 14 in the backup of step S112 generation.Second controller 16 and deletion oneself is in the configuration information (step S119) of the backup of step S115 generation.At last, when the configuration information of first controller 14 and second controller 16 all upgrades when successful, send configuration successful signal (S120)
Accept step S114, when the configuration information update of first controller 14 is failed, the own present configuration information (step S121) of configuration information reduction of the backup that first controller 14 produces according to step S112, and send a configuration failure signal (step S122).Like the configuration successful class signal, the configuration failure signal can be passback value, parameter or the interruption that replies to server 12.
Accept step S117,, but during the failure of the configuration information update of second controller 16, carry out following steps when the success of the configuration information update of first controller 14.At first according to this configuration information of the backup of first controller 14, reduce the configuration information (step S121) of first controller 14; And, reduce the configuration information (step S123) of second controller 16 according to this configuration information of the backup of second controller 16; Send configuration failure signal (step S122) again.
In brief, before the configuration information that upgrades first controller 14 or second controller 16, all can back up original configuration information, and reduction configuration when taking place to upgrade mistake according to this.And, all be considered as renewal failure at the integral body of this config update requirement if there is any generation in first controller 14 or second controller 16 to upgrade failure.In other words, only under all being updated the situation of success, the configuration information of dual controller just can send the configuration successful signal.
Please refer to Fig. 4, it is the block diagram for the first-in first-out buffer of one enforcement example according to the present invention.First controller 14 can be electrical connected in a first-in first-out buffer (First In First Out buffer, FIFO buffer) 30.Wherein first-in first-out buffer 30 also can be configured among first controller 14.
When first controller 14 is received a plurality of config update requirement 32, can require 32 put into first-in first-out buffer 30 these config updates earlier.First controller 14 requires 32 by taking out config update in the first-in first-out buffer 30 more one by one, to upgrade the configuration information of first controller 14 and second controller 16 in regular turn.
In sum, the configuration information method for synchronous that stores the dual controller of LAN requires 32 configuration informations that upgrade first controllers 14 and second controller 16 according to each config update, with the configuration information that reaches dual controller synchronously.And before upgrading configuration information, can be with original configuration information backup.Thus, not only can guarantee the consistency of the configuration information between dual controller, and can when the config update mistake takes place, recover original configuration information.
Also be applicable to the storage LAN that adopts multi-controller though it should be noted that the above-mentioned example of respectively implementing.Can upgrade storing all controllers in the LAN, to guarantee the consistency of the configuration information between these controllers according to each config update requirement.
Certainly; the present invention also can have other various embodiments; under the situation that does not deviate from spirit of the present invention and essence thereof; those of ordinary skill in the art work as can make various corresponding changes and distortion according to the present invention, but these corresponding changes and distortion all should belong to the protection range of the appended claim of the present invention.
