Configuring an SRP Storage Array With COMSTAR (Task Map)
The SCSI RDMA Protocol (SRP) accelerates the SCSI protocol by mapping the SCSI data transfer phases to Infiniband(tm) (IB) Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) operations. As a result, an SRP initiator will be able to read and write data from a COMSTAR SRP target at high data rates with relatively low CPU utilization. You can set up and configure a COMSTAR SCSI RDMA Protocol (SRP) target and make it available over an Infiniband (IB) fabric. The SRP target is available wherever a supported IB Host Channel Adapter (HCA) is installed on the target system.
