Abstract

According to some embodiments of the invention, systems and methods are provided for capturing and storing state information corresponding to various states of the network file system (NFS) for use inrecovery during a system failure. In various aspects, the disclosed systems and methods may automatically collect and synchronously write state changes made to the NFS to non-volatile storage. In theevent of an NFS system failure or crash (e.g., a failure of the NFS server), the state information corresponding to the NFS system may be automatically imported from the non-volatile storage, therebyenabling NFS services to be resumed immediately and transparently.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to storage systems, and more particularly to systems and methods for continuously available Network File System (NFS) state data. Background technique [0002] Previous implementations of the Network File System (NFS) protocol were stateless in that they did not associate state with client-server transactions. Some protocols benefit from being stateless because it simplifies application development if no client-server transaction is dependent on another client-server transaction. However, previous implementations of the NFS protocol may suffer from performance issues due to statelessness. For example, previous implementations of the NFS protocol may suffer from lock management issues that may slow down recovery. [0003] Unlike previous implementations, the current Network File System (NFS) protocol is stateful, meaning that the effects of operations depend on the effects of previous operations and are not ind...
