    摘要: A storage system includes a backend storage unit for storing electronic information; a controller unit for controlling reading and writing to the backend storage unit; and at least one of a cache and a non-volatile storage for storing the electronic information during at least one of the reading and the writing; the controller unit executing machine readable and machine executable instructions including instructions for: testing if a frequency of non-volatile storage full condition has occurred one of above and below an upper threshold frequency value and a lower threshold frequency value; if the frequency of the condition has exceeded a threshold frequency value, then calculating a new size; calculating an expected average response time for the new size; comparing actual response time to the expected response time; and one of adjusting and not adjusting a size of the non-volatile storage to minimize the response time.

    摘要: A method for upgrading microcode in a multi-module storage system may include selecting a first module from two or more modules and operating the first module using an upgraded microcode. The method may include monitoring the performance of the first module by a second module of the two or more modules and rendering an indication of performance of the first module. Further, the method may include determining whether the indication of performance of the first module is greater than or equal to a performance metric.
