摘要:
A technique includes determining at least one metric associated with a replication operation to replicate at least a portion of a first object stored on one of a client, a first storage appliance and a second storage appliance onto another one of the client, the first storage appliance and the second storage appliance. The technique further includes regulating the replication operation including selectively regulating at least one parameter of the replication operation based on the metric(s).

An apparatus, for connection to a storage device, comprising: a module for communication with a software application and operable to receive instructions to copy data to the storage device; a chunking and identifier generation module operable to receive the data, to process the data into chunks, to generate a first chunk identifier, representative of the identity of a first of the chunks of data and, upon processing of the data, to initiate the issuance of a confirmation signal to the software application indicating that the data has been copied to the storage device; and an interface for communication with the storage device, wherein the interface is operable to send the first chunk identifier to the storage device, and to send the first chunk of data to the storage device upon receipt of a transfer instruction from the storage device.
摘要:
Chunks are stored in a container of a data store, where the chunks are produced by dividing input data as part of a deduplication process. In response to determining that the size of the container has reached a predefined size threshold, at least one of the chunks in the container is moved to another container.

A method for securing access to a data medium comprises recording a unique identification number assigned to each medium in at least a portion of a data library, and commanding at least one selected data transfer element in said library to only accept media having particular ones of said identification numbers.

An apparatus, for connection to a storage device, comprising: a module for communication with a software application and operable to receive instructions to copy data to the storage device; a chunking and identifier generation module operable to receive the data, to process the data into one or more chunks, to generate a first chunk identifier, representative of the identity of a first of the or each chunk of data and, upon processing of the data, to initiate the issuance of a confirmation signal to the software application indicating that the data has been copied to the storage device; and an interface for communication with the storage device, wherein the interface is operable to send the first chunk identifier to the storage device, and to send the first chunk of data to the storage device upon receipt of a transfer instruction from the storage device.
摘要:
A technique includes queuing jobs to replicate object data stored on a storage appliance. The technique includes, for at least one of the jobs, selectively regulating when the job appears in the schedule based at least in part on a number of failed attempts to complete the job.
摘要:
Data processing apparatus comprising: a chunk store containing specimen data chunks, a manifest store containing a plurality of manifests, each of which represents at least a part of a data set and each of which comprises at least one reference to at least one of said specimen data chunks, a sparse chunk index containing information on only some specimen data chunks, the processor being operable to: process input data into input data chunks; identify manifests having at least one reference to one of said specimen data chunks that corresponds to one of said input data chunks and on which there is information contained in the sparse chunk index; and prioritize the identified manifests for subsequent operation.

Data processing apparatus comprising: a chunk store containing specimen data chunks, a manifest store containing at least one manifest that represents at least a part of a data set and that comprises at least one reference to at least one of said specimen data chunks, a sparse chunk index containing information on only those specimen data chunks having a predetermined characteristic, the processing apparatus being operable to process input data into input data chunks and to use the sparse chunk index to identify at least one of said at least one manifest that includes at least one reference to one of said specimen data chunks that corresponds to one of said input data chunks having the predetermined characteristic.
摘要:
A method for securing access to a data medium comprises listing at least one unique identifier of media that a data transfer element is allowed to access in memory storage of the data transfer element, accessing only media having at least one of the listed unique identifiers in media cartridge memory with the data transfer element, and writing a unique identifier associated with the data transfer element to the cartridge memory of the selected medium with the data transfer element in response to no library assigned unique identifier being present in the cartridge memory of the selected medium.
