Abstract:
Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for adding dummy requests to a submission queue to manage processing of queued requests according to priorities of the queued requests. A determination is made of a priority for a request to stage a track from the storage device to the cache or to destage a track from the cache to the storage device, comprising a first priority or a second priority. The first priority is higher than the second priority. At least one dummy request is added to a queue in response to the request having the second priority. The controller upon processing a dummy request in the queue discards the dummy request without performing an operation with respect to the storage device. An I/O request having the second priority is added to the queue. The controller processes the I/O request to stage or destage data.

Claim (Index 10):
The computer program product of  claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:\n receiving a subsequent request to stage or destage data having the high or the medium priority; determining whether there is a dummy request in the queue for the high priority in response to the subsequent request having the high priority; replacing the dummy request in the queue having the high priority with an I/O request having the high priority in response to determining that the queue includes the dummy request having the high priority; determining whether there is a dummy request in the queue for the medium priority in response to the subsequent request having the medium priority; and replacing the dummy request in the queue with an I/O request having the medium priority in response to determining that the queue includes the dummy request having the medium priority.
