摘要:
A data storing system include a first and second storage system, each including a cache memory and a disk drive, and a third storage system coupled to the first and second storage systems and including a third disk drive to provide a third logical volume based on the third disk drive. First and second write data is transmitted from the first storage system to the second storage system according to copy pair management information. A certain storage system, which is one of the first and second storage systems, destages the second write data from a cache memory of the certain storage system to the third logical volume in the third storage system according to a volume and storage conversion table in the certain storage system.

For data obtaining target at execution of a new task, if a data set as a processing target is beforehand allocated to a data allocation area in an allocation-target execution server as a target of allocation, a schedule server of a job processing system sets the data set as the data obtaining target; if the data set as the processing target is not beforehand allocated to the data allocation area in any one of the execution servers, the schedule server sets the data in the external storage area as the data obtaining target; and if the data set as the processing target is beforehand allocated to the data allocation area in a second execution server other than the allocation-target execution server, the schedule server sets the data set allocated to the second execution server as the data obtaining target.

This invention relates to data backup and data recovery in a computer system. An outputting unit updates data stored in a first area based on an update request of data from the host computer, a creating unit stores update data for the update request in a second area, a marker processing unit creates a marker containing information of the range, in which the data is stored, and information indicating whether or not the data is allowed to be stored in a third area based on a request of creating the marker from the host computer to store the created marker in the second area, and a reflecting unit refers to the marker, obtains the update data corresponding to the data storing range, which is stored prior to the marker, and reflects the obtained update data to the third area.

A storage system where storage devices themselves have WORM functionality that can be set at any time. The storage system includes storage devices, and a controller for controlling data transmission between the storage devices and an information processor. Each storage device has a storage cell and a fuse at a midpoint on a write control line, and the controller applies a voltage to the fuse to blow it to set WORM for the storage cell.

A rerunning load is reduced for reducing the risk of exceeding a specified termination time after abnormally ending a job net. Even if the same data processed by jobs within a job net is replaced with split data of sub-jobs and some of sub-jobs have been abnormally ended, the job net is continued. For each split data, a state and/or an execution server ID of each job are stored, and the progress of a job net is managed. Only split data whose state is not “normal” is to be processed by rerunning. Based on states of execution servers, on whether or not intermediate files transferred between jobs is shared among execution servers, and on whether or not an output file is deleted after ending the subsequent job, it is judged whether or not intermediate files can be referred to and from what job the rerun is to be performed.

This invention provides a storage system coupled to a computer that executes data processing jobs by running a program, comprising: an interface; a storage controller; and disk drives. The storage controller is configured to: control spinning of disk in the disk drives; receive job information which contains an execution order of the job and a load attribute of the job from the computer before the job is executed; select a logical volume to which none of the storage areas are allocated when requested by the computer to provide a logical volume for storing a file that is used temporarily by the job to be executed; select which storage area to allocate to the selected logical volume based on at least one of the job execution order and the job load attribute; allocate the selected storage area to the selected logical volume; and notify the computer of the selected logical volume.
摘要:
A batch job multiplex processing method which solves the problem that a system which performs multiplex processing including parallel processing on plural nodes cannot cope with a sudden increase in the volume of data to be batch-processed using a predetermined value of multiplicity, for example, in securities trading in which the number of transactions may suddenly increase on a particular day. The method dynamically determines the value of multiplicity of processing including parallel processing in execution of a batch job on plural nodes. More specifically, in the method, multiplicity is determined depending on the node status (node performance and workload) and the status of an input file for the batch job.

The object of the invention is to prevent differential data transfer for a volume pair from being stopped by the influence of another volume pair and make the loads on physical paths equal to each other by finding an optimum allocation of the physical paths to logical paths. A storage network system includes a host computer 10 and a plurality of storage subsystems 20, and the host computer 10 or a storage subsystem 20 checks a pair status of a volume pair consisting of a source logical volume 26p and a target logical volume 26s, determines a coefficient value uniquely determined from the pair status as a load value of the volume pair, determines a sum of load values of volume pairs belonging to the group to which the source volume belongs as a group load value, and allocates a number of physical paths corresponding to the group load value and a plural-group load value, which is a sum of the load values of a plurality of groups, to the volume pairs belonging to the group as a logical path, which is a virtual communication link.
