Abstract
A dynamic session redirector provides the ability to receive requests for network accessible storage resources and redirect them to the appropriate resources as needed while providing a single system image to the system requesting access to the resources. The redirector provides an ability to reconfigure the network storage resources without altering the system image presented by the redirector to the clients on the network. This may be used to provide for dynamic reallocation of the resources in order to improve efficiency and reliability of the storage system, as well to provide support for a wide variety of protocols to be redirected, including stateful protocols.
