METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR HEURISTIC THROTTLING FOR DISTRIBUTED FILE SYSTEMS
First Claim
1. A method for throttling in a file system, comprising:
- receiving a request by a client from an application to write data to a server, wherein the application is associated with an application bandwidth and wherein the server is associated with a server bandwidth;
queuing a first job to write the data to the server on an I/O queue using an application-to-client throttling mechanism and at least one selected from a group consisting of the application bandwidth and the server bandwidth; and
issuing the first job from the I/O queue to the server using a client-to-server throttling mechanism and at least one selected from a group consisting of the application bandwidth and the server bandwidth.

Abstract
A method for throttling in a file system. The method includes receiving a request by a client from an application to write data to a server, wherein the application is associated with an application bandwidth and wherein the server is associated with a server bandwidth, queuing a first job to write the data to the server on an I/O queue using an application-to-client throttling mechanism using at least one selected from the group of the application bandwidth and the server bandwidth, and issuing the first job from the I/O queue to the server using a client-to-server throttling mechanism and at least one selected from the group of the application bandwidth and the server bandwidth.
