Abstract
Machine implemented methods and systems for writing data at a storage device are provided. A write command from an initiator adapter is received at a target adapter interfacing with a target controller for writing data to the storage device; where the write command includes information regarding a virtual logical unit number (LUN) for writing data in response to the write command. The target controller uses an indicator to notify the target adapter to process the write command and provides information regarding a designated LUN for the storage device where data is to be written at the storage device in response to the write command. Thereafter, the target adapter sends a response to the initiator adapter that it is ready to receive data and issues a write command for the storage device at the same time.
