File server node with non-volatile memory processing module coupled to cluster file server node
First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a storage device; and
a file server node comprising(i) a first interface being configured to communicate with a network and receiving a network request via the network,(ii) a non-volatile memory being configured to store a request related to the network request received by the first interface,(iii) a second interface being configured to be coupled to the storage device for storing the request, and(iv) a non-volatile memory processing module, coupled to the first interface, the non-volatile memory and the second interface, and being configured to be coupled to another file server node, so that the non-volatile memory processing module is configured to perform each of sending the request to the non-volatile memory, sending the request to the second interface and sending the request to the another file server node after the non-volatile memory processing module receives the request.

Abstract
Apparatus includes a file server node having (i) a first interface operable to communicate with a network and receiving a network request via network, (ii) a non-volatile memory operable to temporarily store a request related to the network request received by the first interface, (iii) a second interface operable to be coupled to the storage device for storing the request, and (iv) a non-volatile memory processing module, coupled to the first interface, the non-volatile memory and the second interface, and operable to be coupled to another file server node, so that the request can be sent to the non-volatile memory, the second interface and the another file server node after the non-volatile memory processing module receives the file system request.
