摘要： The present invention provides improved techniques for managing storage resources, such as disk drives, I/O ports, and the like in a network based storage system according to a user position within the network. Embodiments according to the present invention can provide a relatively high performance storage access environment for the mobile users moving around a wide area. For example, in one applicable environment, there are several data centers in the wide area, and each data center has a local storage system that is connected to the other storage systems through a network. Copies of a user's volume can be made in some of the storage systems. A remote copy function is utilized for making real time copies of the user's volume.

摘要： Backup and restore operations are made possible in a storage system that has dynamic chunk allocation (DCA) capability. In a DCA storage system, a chunk of physical storage area is not allocated to a segment of a volume until a write command is received targeting the segment of the volume. During a restore operation of the volume in the DCA storage system, the wasting of storage capacity when a backup image of the volume is restored is mitigated by preventing allocation of physical storage areas to segments of restore data that are only void data.

摘要： A bearing retainer, which is molded with a resin composition comprising a polyphenylene sulfide and a second resin having a higher deflection temperature under a load at 1.8 MPa than polyphenylene sulfide. The bearing retainer exhibits high heat resistance, chemical resistance, oil resistance, strength at a high temperature, and the like, being comparable to those of a conventional bearing retainer made of polyether ether ketone and further exhibits higher accuracy in dimension and shape and can be produced at a lower cost, as compared to a bearing retainer made of polyether ether ketone. It is preferred that the above second resin is a resin having a flexural modulus higher than that of polyphenylene sulfide and that a resin composition contains carbon fiber as a reinforcing fiber.

摘要： In one embodiment, a new storage system is connected to an old storage system destined for replacement. Prior to starting online data migration, remote copy configuration information from the old storage system is migrated to the new storage system. The aforementioned allows either the new storage system or the old storage system, depending on configuration, to maintain an operational remote copy function with another storage system during the online data migration. The old and new storage systems can be primary storage systems located in a local site. The old and new storage systems can also be secondary storage systems located in a site remotely located from a local site.

摘要： A storage device system comprises interfaces connected to computers, a plurality of magnetic disks, and a control device that controls the plurality of magnetic disks. When a command from one of the computers instructing a tape library device to load a magnetic tape into a tape device is received by one of the interfaces, the control device selects a storage region that is managed as a virtual tape from among storage regions of the magnetic disks. When one of the interfaces receives an access request from the computer to the tape device, the control device controls to access the storage region selected.

摘要： A first storage system is connected to a second storage system, and an external device within the first storage system is provided to a host as a device of the second storage system. The second storage system includes a cache control section having cache adaptors, each controlling a disk and a cache, a protocol conversion section including protocol adaptors that switch requests from the host to appropriate ones of the cache adaptors, a management adaptor, and an internal network that mutually connects the cache adaptors, the protocol adaptors and the management adaptor. The first storage system being connected to any of the protocol adaptors is connected to the second storage system. The second storage system executes a processing for the external device by the cache control section, or connects to the first storage system through the protocol conversion section without the cache control section executing processing for the external device.

摘要： A primary controller operates to transmit write data and a write time to a secondary controller in the earlier sequence of the write times after reporting a completion of a request for write to a processing unit. The secondary controller stores the write data and the write time transmitted from the primary controller in the cache memory. At a time, the secondary controller stores the write data in a disk unit in the earlier sequence of the write time. These operations make it possible to guarantee all the write data on or before the reference time.
