Abstract:
Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems determine that a cache is to be migrated from a first storage device to a second storage device. The cache includes cache entries organized in a first list of cache entries and a second list of cache entries. Only a portion of all cache entries from the first and second lists is selected for migration to the second storage device. The selected cache entries and metadata for cache entries from the first or second list that were not selected are migrated from the first storage device to the second storage device.
