Abstract
A method and system for co-locating journaling and data storage based on write requests. A write request that includes metadata and data is received from a client. A logical storage unit for storing the metadata and the data is identified. The logical storage unit is divided into a journal partition and a volume partition. The journal partition includes a first log and a second log. Which of the first log and the second log is an active log and which of the first log and the second log is an inactive log are identified. The metadata is recorded in a first location in the active log and the data is recorded in a second location in the active log during a single I/O operation. A reply is sent to the client after the metadata and the data are recorded in the journal partition.
