Abstract

See full text

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and software for data storage systems are provided herein. In one example, a data storage system is provided that includes storage drives each comprising a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interface, and configured to store data and retrieve the data stored on associated storage media responsive to data transactions. The data storage system also includes processing modules each comprising one or more processors, where a first processor is configured to receive data transactions and transfer the data transactions for delivery to associated ones of the storage drives. A monitoring system is configured to identify when the first processor fails, and responsively instruct a second processor to handle further data transactions directed to storage drives associated with the first processor.
