Abstract
A system and method for managing data transfers. A system comprises a plurality of nodes and a fabric including at least a first link interconnecting the plurality of nodes. The system allocates a first pipe having a unique first pipe identifier and a second pipe having a unique second pipe identifier within the first link. A first initiator node uses the first link and the first pipe identifier to communicate with a first target node. A second initiator node uses the first link and the second pipe identifier to communicate with a second target node. The system allows concurrent data exchanges via the first and second pipes. The first link comprises a Fibre Channel link. The first and second initiator nodes each comprise at least one SCSI initiator and the first and second target nodes each comprise one or more SCSI logical units coupled to a physical storage medium.
