Abstract
Dual-level storage device reservation is disclosed. A first request associated with a first application of a plurality of applications to reserve a first network-attached storage device for write access is accessed. A first storage device reservation key is stored on the first network-attached storage device to reserve the network-attached storage device. A first mapping entry that associates the first storage device reservation key with a first application identifier (ID) of the first application is generated. The first storage device reservation key is received from the first application, and a message is sent to the first application that contains information that identifies the first application as having write access to the first network-attached storage device based on the first mapping entry.
