摘要:
To eliminate duplicated caching in a storage system with plural disk cache partitions, which are obtained by dividing a disk cache. A storage system includes non-volatile medium that stores data; a disk cache that temporarily stores data to be stored in the non-volatile medium; a control unit that controls input and output of data to and from the non-volatile medium; and a memory unit that stores information used by the control unit. The control unit divides the disk cache into at least one of independent disk cache partitions. The memory unit stores the first information that describes states of respective memory areas in the disk cache, and the second information that indicates states of respective memory areas in the disk cache used by the divided disk cache partitions. The second information includes information that identifies the first information corresponding to the respective memory areas in the disk cache.

The version management method according to the present invention by a computer system comprises a repository server 2 and a user terminal 1. The repository server 2 executes a procedure that the file to be updated within the user repository 26 are updated by the user terminal 1, a procedure that the files to be updated within the user repository 26 are updated so as to write the files to be updated on the system repository 22, and a procedure that the file to be updated within the system repository 22 are read by the arbitrary user terminal 1.

A technique that can update the firmware with services for clients continued on a circuit board that comprises a control unit of a storage system is provided. A plurality of blade that comprise control unit have previous BIOS on flash memory. Clusters are formed including the blade which is subject to firmware update. At the time of updating the firmware, for the update candidate substrate, the processing unit including processing to move the service provided by OS of blade to be subject to firmware update processing to OS of other blade in the cluster as well as firmware update processing for updating previous BIOS of blade which no longer provides services by the use of the BIOS update program and new BIOS image.
摘要:
A computer system which enables more efficient use of a storage system shared by plural host computers and optimizes the performance of the whole system including the host computers and storages. A computer device has a first control block which logically partitions computing resources of the computer device and makes resulting partitions run as independent virtual computers. The storage system has a second control block which logically partitions storage resources of the storage system and makes resulting partitions run as independent virtual storage systems. The system also has a management unit incorporating: a first control table which controls computing resources of the computer device; a second control table which controls storage resources of the storage system; and a third control table which controls the relations between the virtual computers and the virtual storage systems. The first control block logically partitions the computing resources according to the first control table; and the second control block logically partitions the storage resources according to the second control table.
摘要:
A storage includes: host interface units; file control processors which receives a file input/output request and translates the file input/output request into a data input/output request; file control memories which store translation control data; groups of disk drives; disk control processors; disk interface units which connect the groups of disk drives and the disk control processors; cache memories; and inter-processor communication units. The storage logically partitions these devices to cause the partitioned devices to operate as two or more virtual NASs.

A pair of left and right dies 12 and 14 are installed on both sides of a transfer path of a web 7 and ejection paths 30 of coating solution are made freely openable and closable by installing rotary valves 37 at insides of the dies 12 and 14 by which when coated portions and uncoated portions are successively formed, intermittent coating can be carried out by swiftly forming these portions.
摘要:
Provided in one embodiment is a nonvolatile storage system having multiple nonvolatile storage media and a controller coupled to the multiple nonvolatile storage media. The controller has a storage area configured to store management information including probability management information denoting error probability information of a unit physical area in a nonvolatile storage medium, and an error correcting circuit configured to carry out coding and decoding by a low density parity check code. The controller, in a data read process, is configured to identify based on management information an error probability, uses the identified error probability to correct the read data using the error correcting circuit.
摘要:
A computer system includes a server system and a storage system. The server system is configured to manage a plurality of virtual machines, each of which has a virtual machine interface. The storage system is configured to manage a plurality of virtual storage systems, each of which has a virtual storage interface. A first virtual machine is related to a first virtual storage system of the plurality of virtual storage systems. If the first virtual machine issues a first command to the first virtual storage system through a first virtual machine interface of the first virtual machine, the server system adds information of a first identifier, which is assigned to a first virtual storage interface of the first virtual storage system related to the first virtual machine, to the first command, and sends the first command to the storage system.

摘要:
The computer system includes a server being configured to manage a first virtual machine to which a first part of a server resource included in the server is allocated and a second virtual machine to which a second part of the server resource is allocated. The computer system also includes a storage apparatus including a storage controller and a plurality of storage devices and being configured to manage a first virtual storage apparatus to which a first storage area on the plurality of storage devices is allocated and a second virtual storage apparatus to which a second storage area on the plurality of storage devices is allocated. The first virtual machine can access to the first virtual storage apparatus but not the second virtual storage apparatus and the second virtual machine can access to the second virtual storage apparatus but not the first virtual storage apparatus.
