摘要： A data storage facility for transferring data from a data altering apparatus, such as a production data processing site to a remote data receiving site. The data storage facility includes a first data store for recording each change in the data generated by the data altering apparatus. A register set records each change on a track-by-track basis. A second data store has first and second operating modes. During a first operating mode the second data store becomes a mirror of the first data store. During a second operating mode the second data store ceases to act as a mirror and becomes a source for a transfer of data to the data receiving site. Only information that has been altered, i.e., specific tracks that have been altered, are transferred during successive operations in the second operating mode. Commands from the local production site initiate the transfers between the first and second operating modes.

摘要： A method and apparatus for enabling an on-line reconfiguration of striped data in a disk array storage device. A replicated copy of the striped logical device is made in parallel with host operations. A logical device with a new configuration is then substituted for access by the host application even before any data is transferred to locations within the newly configured logical device. Independent processes operating in this disk array storage device reconfigure the data transparently to any host operations while accommodating host I/O requests directed to locations in the new configuration.

摘要： Method and apparatus for generating partial backups of logical objects in a computer storage system are disclosed. Changed data blocks are identified and stored as differential abstract block sets. The differential abstract block set may include data blocks in any order and metadata identifying the relative position of the data block in the logical object. The invention includes methods for formatting updated backups using the differential backups.

摘要： There is described herein a method and system for inscribing gratings in optical waveguides. The waveguides may be hydrogen-free, germanium-free, low germanium, low hydrogen, and a combination thereof. Such gratings written in hydrogen-free fibers are suitable for sensor applications in which the use of hydrogen for photosensitizing fibers is undesirable owing to their increased sensitivity to nuclear radiation. The grating are formed by at least one pulse having a wavelength comprised between about 203 nm and about 240 nm. The laser source may be a Continuous Wave (CW) laser source or a pulsed laser source generating at least one pulse having a width in the order of nanoseconds (109).

摘要： A method and apparatus for data recovery in a system involving a first data store acting as a standard volume and a physical moving mirror data store that operates in a first mode to be synchronized and in a second, isolated mode. A third physical mirror data store synchronizes with the second data store in its second operating mode. In response to a command to establish a third or reverse split operating mode, the data to be transferred in response to that command is identified. Copying of the identified data then commences from the third data store to the second data store to recover any data that may have been corrupted in the second data store.

摘要： A method and apparatus for data recovery in a system involving a first data store acting as a standard device and a physical moving mirror data store that operates as moving mirror with a first mode to be synchronized and in a second, isolated mode. In response to a command to establish a third or protected restore operating mode, the data to be transferred in response to that command is identified. A restoration procedure copies data from the second data store to the first store to recover any data that may have been corrupted in the second data store. An update procedure acts on the restored data concurrently with the restoration procedure.
