DYNAMICALLY CONFIGURABLE STORAGE DEVICE

摘要

A method dynamically configures resources in a storage device. The method includes determining a requirement for supplementary resources for processing upcoming storage specific commands associated with at least one of a plurality of logical unit in the storage device. The method also includes identifying type of supplementary resources required for the logical unit. Furthermore, the method includes determining whether unused resources of the identified resource type present in a common pool of resources shared between a plurality of logical units, and dynamically configuring the common pool of resources among the plurality of logical units such that the unused resources of the identified resource type present in the common pool of resources are allocated to the logical unit as supplementary resources for processing the upcoming storage specific commands.
