Provided are techniques for static load balancing implemented in a filter driver. The filter driver determines a data quota for each of multiple data paths. The filter driver identifies a maximum number of commands for a target logical unit. The filter driver selects a data path on which to send a packet based on the data quota and the maximum number of commands. Also, provided are techniques for dynamic load balancing implemented in a filter driver. The filter driver determines a data transfer speed for each of multiple data paths. The filter driver updates a load balancing share for each of the multiple data paths based on the data transfer speed of each of the multiple data paths. The filter driver selects a data path on which to send a packet based on the load balancing share of each of the multiple data paths.
