Abstract
In one general embodiment, a computer-implemented method is provided for storage controller-mediated volume transformation in a shared-resource environment. The computer-implemented method includes receiving, utilizing a processor, a command, from an initiating host system, to send a notification to at least one other host system connected to a shared volume. The computer-implemented method also includes broadcasting an interrupt to the at least one other host system connected to the shared volume, and receiving a response from one or more of the at least one other host system connected to the shared volume. The computer-implemented method further includes notifying the initiating host system of the response(s) received from the one or more of the at least one other host system connected to the shared volume.
