Automated monitoring improved SSD cache reliability

Client: Global flash storage technology provider | Solution: Custom VCS agent for SSD cache control

Limited cache visibility across clusters

SSD cache states in clustered environments couldn’t be tracked or controlled, creating inconsistencies after failovers and restarts. Manual checks slowed troubleshooting and led to performance variations. 

Solution 

Calsoft built a custom VCS agent integrated with Veritas Cluster Server 6.0 to automate cache monitoring and state control across nodes. 

  • Detect and display cache state in real time 
  • Automate cache enable/disable actions during transitions 
  • Persist settings after reboots and failovers 
  • Generate logs for audits and traceability 

This ensured cache consistency, faster recoveries, and predictable performance across clusters.
