摘要:
A disk array device includes hard disks from which RAID groups are configured. Therein, a volume setting unit sets one or more used areas. A data check control unit determines, on the basis of the state into which the used areas have been set, which areas in the RAID groups are subject to a diagnosis. A data check execution unit that executes a cyclical diagnosis on the areas determined, by the data check control unit, to be those subject to a diagnosis.

A disk control apparatus includes a processor, and a memory coupled to the processor in which executes a process as follows. The process includes diagnosing whether or not a failure has occurred on each of a plurality of disk apparatuses, determining, when the failure has occurred, whether or not the failure is a pre-defined failure, and excluding from diagnosis targets, when the failure is the pre-defined failure, a disk apparatus group included in a RAID together with a failed disk apparatus that is determined to have the pre-defined failure in the plurality of disk apparatuses.

A storage control apparatus manages a plurality of storage devices which belong to an RLU such that data is made redundant between different storage devices. If a first storage device fails, a rebuild controller executes a rebuild process to store the same data as recorded in the first storage device in a spare storage device. When the rebuild controller executing the rebuild process has failed in reading out data from a second storage device, a data recovery controller restarts the first storage device, and reads out data to be stored in the spare storage device from the restarted first storage device.

A storage control apparatus manages a plurality of storage devices which belong to a RAID Logical Unit (RLU) such that data is made redundant between different storage devices, where RAID stands for Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks. If a first storage device fails, a rebuild controller executes a rebuild process to store the same data as recorded in the first storage device in a spare storage device. When the rebuild controller executing the rebuild process has failed in reading out data from a second storage device, a data recovery controller restarts the first storage device, and reads out data to be stored in the spare storage device from the restarted first storage device.
摘要:
A control apparatus, coupled to a storage medium via communication links, controls data write operations to the storage medium. A cache memory is configured to store a temporary copy of first data written in the storage medium. A processor receives second data with which the first data in the storage medium is to be updated, and determines whether the received second data coincides with the first data, based on comparison data read out of the storage medium, when no copy of the first data is found in the cache memory. When the second data is determined to coincide with the first data, the processor determines not to write the second data into the storage medium.

A storage device includes: a determination unit to determine an operation of a storage group including a plurality of storage medium based on an access operation on a logical volume serving as an access target of the storage group; and a selection unit to select based on the operation of the storage group, when a failure of at least one of the plurality of storage medium is detected, an alternative storage medium from the at least one of the plurality of storage medium.
摘要:
A control device manages a plurality of storage devices so that data to be recorded is redundantly recorded in different storage devices. An error monitoring unit monitors an occurrence of an error in each of the plurality of storage devices to register information indicative of error occurrence conditions in an error information storage unit for each storage device. When the use of one of the plurality of storage devices is stopped, a rebuild controller determines a timing to perform rebuild processing based on past error occurrence conditions in the storage devices other than the one storage device of the plurality of storage devices by referring to information registered in the error information storage unit.
摘要:
A storage system including first storage devices constituting a first logical storage area, second storage devices constituting a second logical storage area; and a storage control apparatus. The storage control apparatus manages the first and second logical storage areas so that the data stored in the first and second logical storage areas have redundancy, and parity data for the data stored in the second logical storage area are stored in parity storage areas arranged in part of the second storage devices. When part of the first storage devices constituting part of the first logical storage area fail, the storage control apparatus generates part of the data stored, before the failure, in the part of the first storage devices, and stores the generated part of the data in at least part of the second parity storage areas in the second logical storage area.
