Abstract

A system and method executed by a client for communicating between the client and a server over a Fiber Channel (FC) network. The method creates a first Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) request, including a virtual connection identifier and a call message for a server process at the server, sends the first SCSI request to the server over the FC network, creates a second SCSI request, including the virtual connection identifier, sends the second SCSI request to the server over the FC network, and receives, from the server over the FC network, a second SCSI response responsive to the second SCSI request, wherein the SCSI response includes a reply message from the server process.
