Abstract:
In certain information handling system environments, storage devices connected to a client are redirected to a server or other information handling system. To increase efficiency and reduce costs, the server may mount a file system on top of the redirected storage device. Mounting the file system permits the redirected storage device to cache data associated with the storage device of a client. Requests from applications to read data or to write data to the storage device may be handled completely at the server by accessing the file system cache at the server.
