Abstract
A storage server receives a data access request in a standard communication format, such as the Storage Management Initiative-Specification (SMI-S). A single mode request is received at a disk module of the storage server and a cluster mode request is received at a management host of the storage server. The request is forwarded to a communication agent in a management module of the storage server. The communication agent translates the request from the standard communication format to a proprietary format used by the storage server to communicate with an attached storage subsystem. The storage server services the request from the attached storage subsystem through a disk module. In cluster mode, the request is forwarded to corresponding disk modules in each storage server in the cluster.
