1. A system, comprising: a plurality of nodes, wherein each node includes an active device and a memory subsystem coupled to the active device; wherein an active device in a node of the plurality of nodes is configured to generate a global address and translation information identifying a translation function, wherein the global address identifies a coherency unit; wherein a memory subsystem included in the node is configured to perform the translation function identified by the translation information on the global address to generate a physical address of the coherency unit within the memory subsystem; wherein an additional memory subsystem included in an additional node of the plurality of nodes is configured to store the translation information identifying the translation function used in the node, wherein in response to a request for access to the coherency unit, the additional memory subsystem is configured to send the translation information to the node.
