Abstract
Described are methods, systems, and apparatus for communicating the status of storage pool job status between storage processors. A storage pool command is received by the secondary storage processor. The storage pool command is provided, by the secondary storage processor, to the primary storage processor. A storage pool job based on the storage pool command is created by the primary storage processor. The storage pool job is submitted, by the primary storage processor, to a job execution engine, for execution. A storage pool job submission notification is provided, by the primary storage processor, to the secondary storage processor. A storage pool job execution acknowledgement is provided, by the primary storage processor, to the secondary storage processor. The storage pool job is executed by the primary storage processor. One or more storage pool job status notifications are provided, by the primary storage processor, to the secondary storage processor.
