Embodiment Construction

[0021] The method of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0022] In this embodiment, the attachment attribute refers to using the metadata of the local file system to store the metadata of the logical file system, and the metadata of the logical file system does not exist as a data block in a file of the local file system. Therefore, to operate on the metadata of files or directories in the logical file system, such operations need to be forwarded to the corresponding files or directories in the local file system with the same parameters. Such forwarding operations are implemented by implementing a file system interface at the Virtual File System (VFS) layer. Typical metadata operations include create, delete, modify attributes, rename, and query. The above-mentioned operations of the metadata are described below respectively.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method to use adhering attribute storing logic file system metadata. It stores the metadata of logic file system on local file system as local file system file attribute. The method includes the following steps: creating file or catalog of the logic file system; deleting a file or catalog; modifying logic file system attribute; renaming the file or catalog on logic file system; acquiring the metadata of file or catalog on logic file system. By using the method, the logic file system could directly use the metadata process function by using the local file system to inhere the stability and performance of the local file system. It also has the advantages of easy to realize and strong adaptability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to storage of metadata, in particular to a storage method of metadata in a logical file system. Background technique [0002] With the development of computing applications, the increasing data storage requirements and various data storage access modes have brought great challenges to the design of file systems. A file server is a computer that stores a large amount of file data in a centralized manner. Its file system has special requirements different from general computer systems. File servers generally have high-performance processors, a large amount of memory, and a large number of disks. In order to meet the requirements of the file server, those skilled in the art have designed a logical file system based on multiple local file systems. attached figure 1 It is a structural diagram of a typical logical file system. In this logical file system, data is stored in the storage device. The logical file system is a file system b...
