Abstract:
In one embodiment, switch-assisted data storage network traffic management in a data storage center consolidates data placement requests and data placement acknowledgements to reduce network traffic. Other aspects are described herein.

Claim (Index 10):
The method of  claim 9  wherein the first hierarchical level of the first and second hierarchical switches is at a lower hierarchical level as compared to a second hierarchical level of a third hierarchical switch in the hierarchical communication network of the storage system, the method further comprising:\n detecting by the third hierarchical switch, a consolidated multi-chunk placement request to place storage data including the first and second storage data, in storage in a set of storage nodes of the storage system including the first and second sets of storage nodes; \n in response to the consolidated multi-chunk placement request, transmitting by the third hierarchical switch, the first distributed multi-chunk data placement request to the first hierarchical switch to place the first storage data in the first set of storage nodes of the storage system; and \n in response to the third transmission of data, transmitting by the third hierarchical switch, the second distributed multi-chunk data placement request to the second hierarchical switch to place the second storage data in the second set of storage nodes of the storage system.
