3. Introduction Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) -- use Ethernet technology to carry Fibre Channel -- Fibre Channel are encapsulated in Ethernet to be transmitted FCoE has some benefit -- reduce power consumption for I/O operation -- eliminate redundancy in the network -- I/O consolidation among Local Area Networks(LANs) and Storage Area Networks(SANs)

4. SANs (reference) Storage Area Networks 將許多儲存裝置從區域網路獨立出來成為 另一個網路 透過光纖通道﹙ Fibre Channel ﹚與伺服主 機做連結 具備快速備份與災難復原能力 但成本較高、且建置費時 http://goo.gl/TxKBj

5. However…. -- Fibre Channel (FC) is designed to achieve high speed lossless packet transportation -- Ethernet has no control on the traffic congestion Introduction How to consolidate? Differentiated congestion control in Ethernet!

9. Ethernet Congestion Management Q off is the offset of the current buffer utilization with respect to Q eq (+ or - ) Q delta is the change in length of the queue since the last sampled frame

10. In ECM, each rate limiter implements a variation of AIMD for its rate adjustment. A rate limiter periodically increase its sending rate Fb = feedback signal Ethernet Congestion Management

15. A congestion point (CP) features a queue management which is mainly responsible for congestion detection, congestion, notification and packet drop policy. when the buffer utilization exceeds T sc, all LAN traffic, being the low priority traffic, will be dropped. Queue Management in Congestion Point

16. Rate Limiters in the Reaction Point Differentiated Congestion Control

17. Rate Limiters in the Reaction Point A rate limiter regulates the traffic flow by controlling the transmission rate using an AIMD based rate adjustment operation the rate limiter maintains a variable called congestion window to regulate the transmission rate

18. The value of congestion window is initialized to be one. This value increases linearly over a predefined constant time interval called a slot. Rate Limiters in the Reaction Point

35. Our scenario deals with uploading of files from clients and a total of three types of traffic are involved A case study of multiple types of traffic

37. 1.Client1 and Client2 first connect to ApplicationServer1 sending upload requests of LAN traffic type, and this traffic is light. 2. On reception of any request, Application Server1 connects to Metadata Server for data index

38. 3.&3.5 MetadataServer replies with index to identify and track data storage locations. Traffic load between ApplicationServer1 and MetadataServer can be high 4. After index being obtained, Client1 and Client2 connect to the storage directly for file writing, which is SAN traffic # HPCServer1 communicates with HPC Server2 with Inter Process Computing (IPC) traffic A case study of multiple types of traffic

39. Lowest priority : LAN Higher priority : SAN Highest priority : IPC We adopt a target bandwidth utilization ratio of 1:1.4:1.8 for W1:W2:W3 where W1:W2:W3 describe bandwidth utilization for LAN, SAN and IPC traffic.
