Zusammenfassung: | Transferring data between a first storage device coupled to a host computing system and a second storage device coupled to the first storage device includes the first storage device receiving a command from the host computing system, the first storage device determining if the command is an out-of-band (OOB) storage command, and, if the command is an OOB storage command, the first storage device sending a command to the second storage device to cause data to be transferred directly between the first storage device and the second storage device independent of the host computing system. Transferring data between a first storage device coupled to a host computing system and a second storage device coupled to the first storage device may also include the first storage device emulating a host computing system in connection with communicating with the second storage device. The second storage device may be a tape emulation unit. |
