ABSTRACT:
A translating host bus interface adapter is capable of connecting a computer system as a compute node to a storage area network. The adapter has a processor and a memory system containing firmware for execution in the processor. The host bus adapter is capable of recognizing first and second types of redundant storage accessible over the storage area network and translating generic storage commands into translated commands suitable for communicating with either type of redundant storage, and forwarding the translated commands onto the storage area network. The translating host bus adapter is also capable of constructing and maintaining a mirrored dataset comprising copies on redundant storage systems of either or both types.
