Abstract: Storage area network is a new network storage architecture and has become an important research aspect in storage field. Performance research is quite important in network storage research work. Based on the analysis of the transfer process of SAN, a queueing network model for SAN is established. On the basis of the model, it proposes a quantitative performance analysis model for the SAN based on fiber channel protocol. The simulation results show that the difference of SAN system and system models’ performance between the analysis model and simulation result is small.

Key words: Storage area network(SAN), Queueing network, Performance analysis model, Fiber channel
