摘要: A system in accordance with an embodiment of the invention provides Quality Service (QoS) for Storage Access. Such QoS is partially enabled one by automatic pooling storage devices (1206) and provisioning virtual targets from those pools. enforced keeping bandwidth each connection within a specified range, particularly, controlling number allowed concurrent requests initiator. Load balancing also provided embodiment, improving response times requests, further easing ability to provide QoS.
