Abstract

According to one embodiment of the present invention, multiple data scan operations are compacted into a single network message. A plurality of requests to perform a data scan operation on a remote node controller is received, forming a set of received data scan operation requests. A set of data scan operations are generated based on the set of received data scan operation requests, forming a set of generated data scan operations. A network message comprising the set of generated data scan operations is generated, forming a first compacted data scan operation network message. The first compacted data scan operation network message is sent to the remote node controller. A second compacted data scan operation network message is received from the remote node controller, wherein the second compacted data scan operation network message comprises a set of completed data scan operations. The set of completed data scan operations are separated into individual completed data scan operations. Each individual completed data scan operation is sent to the user that issued the request.
