Abstract

See full text

A system is provided to improve storage server performance. The system comprises a receiving component of a storage server to receive a partner server's file system metadata while the partner server operates in a normal mode. The partner server's file system metadata is stored in the storage servers metadata cache and is used to mount the partner server's file system when the first server transitions into a takeover mode of operation.
