Abstract

The internet SCSI(iSCSI) disk has been studied as a storage system which can be directly connected to TCP/IP network. We designed and implemented a shared disk following the iSCSI protocol and providing cache consistency. It is named as intelligent iSCSI(i$^2$SCSI) disk. The i$^2$SCSI disk provides cache consistency of all blocks that belong to the disk using a conventional lease method and it uses 'contiguous blocks-level locking' The prototype of the i$^2$SCSI disk emulator and its client is designed and implemented in Linux 2.4.
