    摘要: The invention relates generally to controlling access to a storage device. In a three-tier storage system including a storage manager, media management devices and storage devices, access to a storage device containing a robotic arm is dynamically assignable to one or more media management devices in accordance with user preferences, storage policies or other logical bases, such as network efficiency or availability. The invention also provides a computerized method for assigning control of a robotic arm to one or more media management devices.

    摘要: Systems and methods for allocating transmission resources within a computer network are provided. In some embodiments of the invention, communication links may be assigned based on predefined preferences or system configuration to facilitate the transfer of data from one point in the network to another. In other embodiments, system operation may be monitored and communication paths be assigned dynamically based on this information to improve system operation and provide improved failover response, load balancing and to promote robust data access via alternative routes.

    摘要: A system and method are provided for pooling storage devices in a virtual library for performing a storage operation. A storage management device determines a storage characteristic of a plurality of storage devices with respect to performing a storage operation. Based on a storage characteristic relating to performing the storage operation, the storage management device associates at least two storage devices in a virtual library. The storage management device may continuously monitor the virtual library and detect a change in storage characteristics of the storage devices. When changes in storage characteristics are detected, the storage management device may change associations of the storage device in the virtual library.
