Abstract
Block level storage system has been widely used as it can provide users raw block device. On the basis of Orthrus system, this paper designs and implements a multiple volume servers block level storage system based on load-balanced strategy-Orthrus Plus. This system uses the dynamic load-balanced strategy based on genetic algorithm strategy to load balance the volume servers clusters and proposes an iSCSI pause and resume method to solve the breakpoint retransmission problem during load-balancing. At last, we design a hierarchical management mechanism based on volume life cycle at storage. Experiments show that the load balancing capability in Orthrus Plus is more accurate and efficient under the situation of larger amount of data, and the hierarchical storage strategy also increases the I/O throughout capacity.
