[基础知识]常见的多路径管理软件
Multipath I/O (多路径)
在计算机存储技术里,多路径提供了容错和性能提高,在计算机系统里CPU有多条物理路径通道,块存储设备通过总
线,控制器,交换设备以及桥接设备来连接。
简单举例同一台计算机里1块SCSI磁盘连接2个SCSI控制器或者磁盘连接到两个FC端口。如果其中1个控制器，
端口或交换设备故障，那操作系统就会自动切换I/O路径到冗余的控制器为应用程序使用,但这样可能会增加延迟.
一些多路径软件可以利用冗余的路径提高性能,例如:
Dynamic load balancing 动态负载均衡
Traffic shaping 流量控制
Automatic path management 自动路径管理
Dynamic reconfiguration 动态设置
Multipath I/O software implementations 多路径软件工具
一些操作系统自带支持多路径功能,如下
SGI IRIX - using the LV, XLV and later XVM volume managers (1990s and onwards)
AIX - MPIO Driver, AIX 5L 5.2 (October 2002) and later
HP-UX 11.31 (2007)
Linux - Device-Mapper Multipath . Linux kernel 2.6.13 (August 2005)
OpenVMS V7.2 (1999) and later
Solaris Multiplexed I/O (MPxIO), Solaris 8 (February 2000) and later
Windows MPIO Driver, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008 (April 2003)
