Abstract
A system includes a virtual machine to transmit an input/output request to a data storage system and a hypervisor configured to maintain a map of the virtual machine to a virtual disk, wherein the virtual disk is a slice of a persistent storage device. A virtual machine server is configured to maintain a map of the virtual disk to a start address and an end address and to update the input/output request with the start address, the end address, and a virtual disk identifier associated with the virtual machine. A processor determines whether the start address and the end address are valid, and if the start address and the end address are valid, then process the input/output request. The response is transmitted to the input/output request.
