Abstract:
A Fibre Channel (FC) or FC-over-Ethernet (FCoE) switch has ports to forward Input-Output (IO) requests, and service data transfers, between end devices in a storage area network. The switch receives at a port a time ordered sequence of IO requests for data transfers to be serviced by the port. Each IO request including a data length of the data transfer. The switch detects a microburst on the port for each IO request. To do this, the switch parses the IO request to retrieve the data length, determines a transfer time required to transfer the data length over the port, upon receiving a next IO request, determine whether a time interval between the IO request and the next IO request is less than the transfer time, and if the time interval is less than the transfer time, declaring a microburst on the port, otherwise not declaring a microburst.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 2 , further comprising:\n collecting information for the port including the time intervals and the data lengths over time; obtaining from the collected information, trends in ingress vs. conditions causing the frequency to exceed the threshold; and training a machine learning algorithm based on the trends to identify request patterns on the ports that are likely to cause microburst conditions, and predict when the microburst conditions are likely to occur in the future.
