Abstract

To schedule workloads of requesters of a shared storage resource, a scheduler specifies relative fairness for the requesters of the shared storage resource. In response to the workloads of the requesters, the scheduler modifies performance of the scheduler to deviate from the specified relative fairness to improve input/output (I/O) efficiency in processing the workloads at the shared storage resource.
