摘要

A storage system includes plural storage units having respective storage controllers and associated caches. A first one of the storage units further includes an internal workload generator to initiate a data operation with respect to at least one destination storage unit, where the data operation is associated with tag information to affect a caching algorithm used by the cache of the at least one destination storage unit. The at least one destination storage unit includes at least one of the plural storage units.
