Abstract:
A storage node in a cluster of storage nodes includes: one or more local storage devices; and a storage node controller. The storage node controller includes: a host interface configured to connect to an application running on a host computer; a storage manager configured to manage one or more virtual namespaces; and a storage device controller configured to manage respective namespace associated with the one or more storage devices. The storage manager is further configured to expand a storage space associated with a virtual namespace on demand on the one or more local storage devices of the storage node at a request of the application running on the host computer when the storage node has a sufficient storage space. the storage manager is further configured to communicate with a peer storage manager of a second storage node over a network and expand the storage space associated with the virtual namespace on demand on a local storage device of the second storage node at the request of the application running on the host computer when the storage node has an insufficient storage space.

Claim (Index 6):
The storage node of  claim 1 , wherein the storage manager updates a global mapping table to update the virtual namespace after the storage space is expanded to the second storage node.
