Abstract
A data mover selection system includes a fabric manager system coupled to computing devices that are coupled to a memory system. The fabric manager system receives respective local data mover selection information from the computing devices that identifies data mover device(s) accessible to those computing device, and generates global data mover selection information that includes each data mover device accessible to the computing devices. When the fabric manager system receives a first data transfer request to transfer data between first and second memory locations in the memory system, it uses the global data mover selection information to identify a data mover device having the highest priority for performing data transfers between the first and second memory locations in the memory system, and transmits a first data transfer instruction to that data mover device to cause that data mover device to perform the first data transfer operation.
