Servicing input/output (‘I/O’) operations directed to a dataset that is synchronized across a plurality of storage systems

摘要

Servicing I/O operations directed to a dataset that is synchronized across a plurality of storage systems, including: receiving, by a follower storage system, a request to modify the dataset; sending, from the follower storage system to a leader storage system, a logical description of the modification to the dataset; receiving, from the leader storage system, information describing the modification to the dataset; processing, by the follower storage system, the request to modify the dataset; receiving, from the leader storage system, an indication that the leader storage system has processed the request to modify the dataset; and acknowledging, by the follower storage system, completion of the request to modify the dataset.
