  • Methods and computer program products for collecting storage resource performance data using file system hooks
    Patent number: 9183111
    Abstract: Provided are methods and computer program products for collecting storage resource performance data using file system hooks. Methods may include determining a location for a function dispatch table, and modifying the function dispatch table to redirect a request for an operation. In response to a received request for the operation, an intent to perform the operation is recorded to estimate an operational queue length, and data associated with the operation is recorded in a hash table. In response to recording data associated with the operation, a function corresponding to the operation to perform the operation is invoked. Elapsed time and storage size is recorded.
