Abstract
A method and system for sharing data reduction metadata with storage systems. Specifically, the disclosed method and system entail communicating, to a storage system, information known to host devices from which data (submitted to-be-written to the storage system) may originate. This a priori reduction-pertinent information, which may include the potential to improve storage system efficiency and/or performance at least with respect to data reduction processing of the data submitted to-be-written, had previously been considered incommunicable to the storage system. The disclosed method and system, however, lift this previous limitation and enable communication of any storage system performance-improving information, applicable to the data submitted to-be-written, to the storage system.
