Abstract: An information handling system may include a processor; a network interface; and a physical storage resource having data stored thereon that is usable by a virtual resource that is executable on the processor. The network interface may accelerate migration of the data to a destination system by, in response to a command from a virtual machine manager: offloading, from the processor, a copying process configured to copy the data to the destination system; tracking portions of the data that are changed by the virtual resource during the copying process; notifying the virtual machine manager that a designated checkpoint has been reached in the copying process; causing the virtual resource to pause; completing the copying process; and causing the virtual resource to resume and use the copied data at the destination instead of the data on the physical storage resource.

Abstract: A Logically Composed System (LCS) data provisioning system includes an orchestrator device that includes a cache subsystem and that is coupled to client devices and storage subsystem(s). When the orchestrator device identifies that a first client device has exclusive access to the storage subsystem(s), it activates read data caching for the storage subsystem(s). The orchestrator device then receives a first read request from the first client device that is directed to first data that is stored in the storage subsystem(s) and, in response, retrieves the first data from the cache subsystem and provides the first data to the first client device. When the orchestrator device identifies that the first client device no longer has exclusive access to the storage subsystem(s), it deactivates the read data caching for the storage subsystem(s).
