    摘要: Structures are provided for mapping data of any of various formats, and for storing data of a linear sequential format, on a random access medium, e.g., having equal sized, sequentially numbered logical sectors. A third level construct comprises regions for data, identifies the region in terms specific to the format and to the sectors. A second level construct comprises a global device block map having an element for each region, identifying the format and bounds of the region in terms of the sectors and specific format, and associates related regions into partitions. A first level construct comprises a format identifier having a pointer indicating location and size of the second level construct in terms of the sectors. For data of variable length sequential device blocks, each device block has a header with multiple backwards references to close and distant previous device blocks.

    摘要: A system and computer program product are provided for utilizing target of opportunity to perform at least one special operation while a removable storage medium is mounted within a data storage drive for another purpose. The system for recognizing a target of opportunity comprises a tape drive. The tape drive receives a command to mount a tape cartridge in the tape drive, and in response the tape drive mounts the tape cartridge in the tape drive. The tape drive determines if at least one special operation may be performed. If it is determined that at least one special operation may be performed, the tape drive recognizes that a target of opportunity exists. In response to determining that at least one special operation may be performed, the tape drive sends a first notification that the tape drive is to remain in a not ready state. The tape drive performs the at least one special operation, and in response to performing the at least one special operation, the tape drive sends a second notification that the tape drive is in a ready state or an error state.

    摘要: A data storage cartridge having an data storage device, such as an encased magnetic disk drive assembly, is, in one embodiment, of generally an exterior dimensional form factor of a tape cartridge having a leader block with a hole therethrough for engagement by a threading pin. To distinguish the cartridge from a tape cartridge, the cartridge shell comprises a blocking portion at the location of the leader block hole. A transfer station both identifies the cartridge and indicates the presence of the cartridge at an end of travel in a cartridge receiver, employing an optical source and an opposed sensor directed toward the leader block hole when a cartridge is at the end of travel. In another embodiment, an encased magnetic disk drive assembly is supported and mounted in a cartridge shell by a shock mount. A flex cable interconnects the rear of the encased magnetic disk drive assembly with an external data transfer interface at the opposite side of the cartridge for data transfer with respect to a transfer station and to provide mechanical isolation.
