The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Using the Parallel NFS (pNFS) SCSI Layout to access NVMe storage devices' (draft-ietf-nfsv4-scsi-layout-nvme-07.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Network File System Version 4 Working Group. The IESG contact person is Zaheduzzaman Sarker. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-nfsv4-scsi-layout-nvme/ Technical Summary This document specifies how to use the Parallel Network File System (pNFS) Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) Layout Type to access storage devices using the Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) protocol family. Working Group Summary Working group consensus was sufficiently broad across the working group to progress this document. The only controversy about this draft was if IETF and NFSv4 was the right forum and if this draft was in scope. There are agreement within the WG and with the AD that this is within scope. Document Quality 2 independent implementations have been created. This is draft presents an evolution of storage layouts as storage advances and should be implemented more over time. The relevant technical experts to understand NVMe and SCSI are also members of the NFSv4 working group. This document uses NVMe and SCSI but only extends the usage of NFSv4 to newer NVMe and SCSI protocol devices. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Christopher Inacio. The Responsible Area Director is Zaheduzzaman Sarker. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
