摘要： A method for dynamically synchronizing storage groups in a data replication environment is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method includes detecting the addition of a volume to a storage group of a primary storage system. The method then automatically performs the following in response to detecting the addition of the volume: (1) adds a corresponding volume to a corresponding storage group on a secondary storage system; (2) creates a mirroring relationship between the volume added to the primary storage system and the volume added to the secondary storage system; and (3) adds the mirroring relationship to a mirroring session established between the storage groups on the primary and secondary storage systems. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.

摘要： An approach to efficient data reorganization. The approach may involve searching for control interval (CI) splits and control area (CA) splits in a data component of a VSAM data set. A mapping is created that maps the source location storing the VSAM data set to a target location. The mapping reorders the VSAM data set such that the CI splits and CA splits are removed when the VSAM data set is moved to the target location in accordance with the mapping. Those CAs that do not include CI splits may be moved without using the host devices' processing resources. For example, the storage device may FlashCopy these areas directly from the source location to the target location. Those CAs that do include CI splits may be moved using the host's processing resources. For example, these CAs may be read into the host, re-ordered by the host, and written by the host to the target location.

摘要： Method, system, and computer program product embodiments of a time-based trace facility for facilitating software debugging without interfering with the run-time behavior, performance or resource usage of the traced software are provided. The trace facility resides in a different address space than the target address space and uses different time-slices of CPU resources to execute the instructions in the address spaces. The trace facility uses a cross-memory mode to read the state data from the target address space in accordance with a time schedule. The trace facility writes the state data to a trace area, which may be located in either the target or trace address spaces or external storage. With this approach, the trace facility can read a large amount of state data frequently to construct the type of historical record needed to analysis run-time behavior, performance and resource usage. The trace facility may use a parameter file to configure a particular trace e.g. specify the target address space, one or more processing tasks within the target address space, a specific trace module, filters to extract specific state data, the time interval, the trace area, etc.

摘要： When a VTOC and a VVDS are established for information used to access data sets of a volume, unused space remains in both structures. The data sets, VTOC and VVDS are stored on a recordable medium. For VSAM data sets, other, vital information about the data set is also stored in the VTOC; for non-VSAM data sets, vital information about the data set is also stored in the VVDS. If the VOTC entry of a non-VSAM data set becomes corrupted, the vital information in the VVDS may be used to access the stored data set. Similarly, If the VVDS entry of a VSAM data set becomes corrupted, the vital information in the VTOC may be used to access the stored data set.

摘要： A method of providing maintenance for a software program residing on a customer's computer system enables a customer to easily determine if there are any available updates for the software program, whether the available updates, if any, have been downloaded, which updates, if any, have been installed, and which installed updates, if any, have been activated. The method includes searching an active storage area on the customer's computer system while the software program is executing to determine the particular version of the software program. The method further includes searching a database of a software provider that provided the software program to determine if there is any update available for the software program, and if any update is available, downloading the update to the customer's computer system and installing the update.
