Abstract
A system and method for allocating resources on a shared storage system are disclosed. The systemcan include a shared storage deviceand a plurality of port schedulersassociated with a plurality of I/O portsthat are in communication with the shared storage device. Each port scheduleris configured to enforce a concurrency level and a proportional share of storage resources of the shared storage devicefor each applicationutilizing the associated port. The systemcan also include a resource controllerthat is configured to both monitor performance characteristics of the applicationsutilizing at least one of the I/O ports, and to adjust the concurrency level and the proportional share of storage resources parameters of the port schedulersfor at least a portion of the applicationsin order to vary allocation of the resources of the shared storage device
