Introducing Latency and Delay in a SAN Environment

摘要

Simulating latency in a network environment. A first device receives a latency request. The first device sends a latency support confirmation. The first device receives an I/O frame. The I/O frame comprising a latency simulating bit and a latency duration. Based on the latency simulating bit and the latency duration, holding, by the first device, the I/O frame. The first device sends the I/O frame on.

1. A method for simulating latency, said method comprising:
receiving, by a first device, a latency request; sending, by said first device, a latency support confirmation; receiving, by said first device, an I/O frame, said I/O frame comprising a latency simulating bit and a latency duration; based on said latency simulating bit and said latency duration, holding, by said first device, said I/O frame; and sending, by said first device, said I/O frame.
