ABSTRACT:
Provided are a method, system, and program for managing requests to an Input/Output (I/O) device. The I/O requests directed to the I/O device are queued and a determination is made as to whether a number of queued I/O requests exceeds a threshold. If the number of queued I/O requests exceeds the threshold, then a coalesce limit is calculated. A number of queued I/O requests not exceeding the calculated coalesce limit are coalesced into a coalesced /O request and the coalesced I/O request is transmitted.
