Abstract:
A computer system having a work computer, first storage systems, and second storage systems also has a network, a network routing device, and a management computer. Upon receipt of the update data from the work computer, the first storage system stores the update data in a first storage volume and stores the update data in a second storage volume until the update data is transferred to the second storage system. The management computer obtains an used capacity of the second storage volume of each of the first storage systems and controls the routing of the data by the network routing device based on the obtained used capacity to prevent the cache of each of the storage systems from being overflown.
Abstract:
A disclosed method for manufacturing a semiconductor device having a structure where a semiconductor element is mounted on a first substrate includes the steps of: bonding the first substrate on which the semiconductor element is mounted and a second substrate made of a material different from a material of the first substrate so as to encapsulate the semiconductor element; forming a first groove in the first substrate and a second groove in the second substrate; and cleaving a portion between the first groove and the second groove so as to individualize the semiconductor device.
Abstract:
A storage system comprises a first storage apparatus having a volume for a host computer, a second storage apparatus connected to the first storage apparatus, and having a volume having a pair relationship with a first volume in the first storage apparatus, and a management apparatus connected to the first storage apparatus and the second storage apparatus. The management apparatus includes a user interface for setting an attribute of a function related to the volume of the first storage apparatus and an attribute of a function related to the volume of the second storage apparatus. The management apparatus compares the attribute of the function related to the first volume and the attribute of the function related to the second volume, and outputs the result of the comparison to the user interface.
Abstract:
A computer specifies the configuration of a first storage device by referencing first configuration information relating to the configuration of a first storage system including the first storage devices, specifies one or more storage medium access performances corresponding to the first storage device by referencing the storage medium performance information, and calculates a first access performance index of the first storage device based on one or more specified storage medium access performances. The computer then references storage medium performance information and second configuration information relating to the configuration of a second storage system including a second storage device, and determines a second storage device having an access performance index that is at least equal to the calculated first storage access performance index.
Abstract:
A management apparatus, a management method, and a storage management system that more specifically manage power consumption, making it easy to analyze problems relating to power consumption or properly relocate data are provided.A power consumption for each of a plurality of memory apparatus groups each consisting of a plurality of memory apparatuses in a storage system is computed based on a performance for each of a plurality of logical storage extents defined in a plurality of storage extents provided by each of the memory apparatus groups, and a value of the power consumption for each of one or more of the memory apparatus groups obtained by the computation is output together with information on an access status of each of the corresponding logical storage extents.
Abstract:
It is desirable that data stored in an old storage device is migrated to a new storage device without any interruption. According to a computer system of this invention, in a first data storage device, a second data storage area of a second data storage device is recognized as a virtualized data storage area of the first data storage device, a data copy relation between the first data storage area and the virtualized data storage area is established, the second data storage area is recognized from the computer based on the data copy relation, data is copied from the first data storage area to the virtualized data storage area based on the data copy relation, and after completion of a data copy operation, a connecting path is switched from the first data storage area to the second data storage area based on the data copy relation.
Abstract:
An electronic component has a substrate made of silicon in which a flow path for circulating a refrigerant is formed, a conductive pattern formed on a first principal surface of the substrate, a via plug penetrating the substrate and also connected to the conductive pattern, and an elastically deformable external connection terminal installed on a second principal surface of the substrate.
Abstract:
The present invention aims at preventing loss of the most recent data even if backup processing ends abnormally.A computer system includes: a first storage system having a data storage extent for storing data sent from a host computer; a second storage system having at least one actual replicated data storage extent associated with the data storage extent; an archive appliance having a storage medium associated with the replicated data storage extent in the second storage system; a data copy unit for controlling copy processing for reading data from the data storage extent in the first storage system and writing the read data to a first actual replicated data storage extent in the second storage system in accordance with specific configuration information; and a connection switching unit for changing the specific configuration information so that a second actual replicated data storage extent, instead of the first actual replicated data storage extent, is associated with the data storage extent.
Abstract:
A method, apparatus and computer program for implementing a storage management system for limiting management operation of a storage network element by determining whether the storage network element is related to a host computer and determining whether the management operation is restricted based on the host computer and the time at which the management operation is to be conducted. The invention is set forth in a system including a network, a plurality of storage network elements connected to the network, and the storage management system, connected to the network, for controlling storage management operation of the storage network elements in response to operation requests from users of the storage management system. Each of the storage network elements is related to at least one of a plurality of host computers and information of these relations is used to determine whether a management operation can be conducted on the storage network element.
Abstract:
The control device acquires the archive deadline of archive target data and acquires, for storage devices of a plurality of types, a warranty deadline for the quality of data stored by the storage device and the unit cost which is the cost for each predetermined storage size of the storage device. The storage control device is a storage device which acquires a data migration cost and which obtains a storage destination for the archive target data from storage devices of a plurality of types on the basis of the archive deadline, warranty deadline, unit cost and data migration cost thus acquired. The storage control device selects a storage device for which the total cost is minimum when the archive target data is archived until the archive deadline.
