Abstract
A method for processing requests includes receiving a request comprising a virtual address, wherein the request is associated with an application executing on an operating system, identifying, based on data specified in the request, a logical volume associated with the data, making a first determination, based on the logical volume, that the logical volume is managed by a remote node, generating a data layout request to receive a data layout of the data from the remote node, receiving the data layout, wherein the data layout specifies a first physical address on the remote node that stores the data, initiating a copy request to copy the data from the first physical address to a second physical address on a local node, generating, based on the copy request, a virtual-to-physical address mapping between the virtual address and the second physical address; and initiating processing the request using the virtual-to-physical address mapping.
