The present invention is to provide a system for backing up cache memory
in a double backup server structure, which comprises a first backup
server having a first SAS controller; a second backup server having a
second SAS controller; and a SAS channel for connecting said first and
second SAS controllers; wherein said first SAS controller and said second
SAS controller each having a sending end initiator defining a cache
mirror command. When said first backup server received a write command
and write data through a Fiber Channel or iSCSI channel into a first
cache memory, said first SAS controller also establishes a first Command
Descriptor Block (CDB) with an operation code of a cache mirror command
as well as a first data header for the cache data. Said first CDB and
first data header are subsequently transmitted through said SAS channel
to said second SAS controller and said second backup server writes said
data into a second cache memory of its own. Accordingly, with the higher
bandwidth facilitated by the SAS channel, considerable amount of cache
data can be processes in high speed to improve the storage efficiency in
a double backup server structure.
