Abstract

Accessing at least two separate physical storage devices as a single logical device includes receiving data/metadata from both of the separate physical storage devices and causing the data/metadata to appear to be coming from only one of the storage devices by spoofing data/metadata from at least one of the storage devices to appear to be coming from the other of the storage devices. Spoofing data/metadata may include revising storage device identifiers. The storage device identifiers may include serial numbers and port identifiers.
