Abstract

An iscsi multi-path management system includes a connection module and a routing module deployed at a client. The routing module is adapted to update and maintain a routing table according to real-time updates, the routing table records legitimate paths conforming to a black/white list rule. The connection module includes a connector and a storage volume manager, the connector is adapted to search for an iscsi target that conforms to the black/white list rule at a storage end, establish an iscsi session through a legitimate path, and notify the storage volume manager to execute a mount volume operation; and the connector is further adapted to regularly recheck the established iscsi session according to an updated black/white list rule, and regularly update and acquire the iscsi target at the storage end, so as to establish the iscsi session with the newly acquired iscsi target that conforms to the updated black/white list rule.
