Customizing a namespace in a decentralized storage environment |
摘要 |
Systems and methods to customize a namespace using a synthetic namespace. A NAS switch provides file migrations in a NAS storage network that are transparent to the clients. The NAS switch file handles are used to customize a namespace. More specifically, a synthetic namespace is generated from one or more file location tables that map the switch file handles to NAS file handles. The NAS file handles are independent of a physical export containing the objects referred to by the NAS file handles. In one example, the synthetic namespace presents a home directory corresponding to a location of a user. |
