摘要
This paper proposes a content addres sable storage optimization method, VDeskCAS, for desktop virtualization storage based disaster backup storage system. The method implements a blocklevel storage optimization, by employing the algorithms of chunking image file into blocks, the blockffmger calculation and the block dedup li cation. A File system in Use Space （FUSE） based storage process for VDeskCAS is also introduced which optimizes current direct storage to suit our content addressable storage. An interface level modification makes our system easy to extend. Experiments on virtual desktop image files and normal files verify the effectiveness of our method and above 60% storage volume decrease is a chieved for Red Hat Enterprise Linux image files. Key words： disaster backup; desktop virtualization; storage optimization; content addressable storage
This paper proposes a content addressable storage optimization method, VDeskCAS, for desktop virtualization storage based disaster backup storage system. The method implements a block-level storage optimization, by employing the algorithms of chunking image file into blocks, the block-finger calculation and the block deduplication. A File system in Use Space (FUSE) based storage process for VDeskCAS is also introduced which optimizes current direct storage to suit our content addressable storage. An interface level modification makes our system easy to extend. Exp eriments on virtual desktop image files and normal files verify the effectiveness of our method and above 60% storage volume decrease is achieved for Red Hat Enterprise Linux image files.
