Abstract:
A high availability storage controller monitors characteristics representative of I/O workload related to processor and mirroring channel utilization. These are input into a model of the system, which provides a threshold curve therefore. The storage controller compares the monitored characteristics against the threshold curve. In write-back mirroring mode, the storage controller determines to remain in that mode when the characteristics fall below the threshold curve and switch to write-through mode when the characteristics fall at or above the threshold curve. In write-through mode, the storage controller determines to remain in that mode when the characteristics fall at or above a lower threshold derived from the generated threshold curve and switch to write-back mirroring mode when the characteristics fall below the lower threshold. The storage controller may repeat this monitoring, comparing, and determining whether to switch over time for a feedback loop to provide a responsive and dynamic caching mode system.

Claim (Index 9):
A non-transitory machine readable medium having stored thereon instructions for performing a method comprising machine executable code which when executed by at least one machine, causes the machine to:\n operate a first storage controller and a second storage controller in a mirroring cache mode that includes the first storage controller sending a plurality of write operations over a communication channel to the second storage controller; monitor a utilization of the communication channel during the mirroring cache mode; and change from the mirroring cache mode to a write-through mode based at least in part on a monitored level of utilization of the communication channel.
