Abstract:
1. A method for processing information, comprising: collecting configuration information about a database, wherein the database is accessed by a host system, wherein the host system is associated with a set of network interface cards (NIC) and a NIC queue, wherein the host systems includes a set of disks, wherein each disk of the set of disks includes primary and mirror disks; based on the collected configuration information, planning migration of data of the database, wherein the planning includes creating first and second lists for the host system, wherein the first list of the host system includes a set of primary disks and the second list of the host system includes a set of mirror disks, wherein creating the first and second lists comprises ordering the lists such that a read operation is performed on the set of primary disks and a write operation is performed on the set of mirror disks; evaluating network throughput of the set of network interface cards; based on the evaluation, selecting first and second network interface cards from the NIC queue; determining a first disk to read from based on the collected information, wherein data is read from the first disk using the first NIC; determining a second disk to write to based on the collected information; and performing a write operation on the second disk using the second NIC.
