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 17):
The system of  claim 16  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 the hierarchical communication network of the storage system, the system further comprising:\n a third hierarchical switch at the second hierarchical level, the third hierarchical switch having inter-rack request generation logic configured to detect 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, and in response to the consolidated multi-chunk placement request, generate and transmit 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 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.
