Abstract
Remote mirroring has become increasingly important as organizations and businesses depending more and more on digital information. Balancing the data availability, access performance and the cost of building and maintaining is essential goal for designing remote mirroring system. This paper presents a novel architecture of remote mirroring based on iSCSI and describes the structure of mirroring log and buffer which can improve performance and keep availability of date synchronously. The experience results show the maximal workload of remote mirroring in 100Mbps and gigabit network environment respectively.
