  • EXPOSING STORAGE ENTITY CONSISTENCY CAPABILITY STATUS
    Publication number: 20160216988
    Abstract: A storage entity (e.g., a virtual hard drive) that exposes its technical capabilities including a consistency capability status via an application program interface to a software module (e.g., a virtual machine). The storage entity queries the storage entity through an application program interface to determine technical capabilities of the storage entity. The storage entity responds with a consistency capability status providing a level of consistency that the storage entity is able to provide data stored thereon. The software module may then use this consistency capability status to determine whether to store which data on the storage entity.
