ABSTRACT:
A command is received, at a network storage driver, from an operating system storage stack, wherein the command is for communication with a target storage device over a connection across a network. The command is selectively executed, a plurality of times over the connection, for communicating with the target storage device, in response to a determination that the command failed to successfully communicate with the target storage device within a threshold period of time.
