Abstract

See full text

The current invention provides a method for improving throughput to or from a resource by allowing multiple servers to concurrently access the resource without affecting the integrity of the resource. Generally, by allowing one server to handle the administrative management of a resource, while allowing all servers, including the administrative server, to handle the actual passing of data associated with the I/O request, allows for increased bandwidth between clients and the resource. An I/O request to a first server node is converted into an access portion and a data transfer portion. The access portion is passed to a corresponding administrative server node for the resource. Subsequently, the administrative server may issue an access grant to the first server node. In response, the first server completes the data transfer for the resource.
