摘要： To prevent for a prolonged time period, the fixed-position floating status of a head in the control operation of a storage unit, and to prevent a decrease in the reliability due to deterioration in the properties of a storage medium, a control apparatus is described. The control apparatus relays read/write instructions for a magnetic disk unit, and includes an access-area setting unit that dynamically specifies one of a plurality of unit areas provided in a magnetic disk storage area as an access area for data, an addressing unit that updates the value of a write address in a data write request with an address that represents a physical sector corresponding to an access area in the storage area, and a valid-area changing unit that migrates data to a sector in an access area from a physical sector in another unit area corresponding to the sector at predetermined time.

摘要： In a controller of a tape drive, a CM input-output unit recognizes a tape format; a tape variable acquisition unit acquires tape variables; a setting variable acquisition unit acquires setting variables; and a minimum number calculator calculates a minimum number m of sub datasets, which are to be written to a tape to secure resistance to burst error, by using the tape variables and setting variables. When a command processor receives a synchronization command, the buffer manager generates n sub datasets for storing data in the buffer. If n is smaller than m, m sub datasets are padded out and set as write data. If n is m or more, the n sub datasets are set as write data. Then, the channel input-output unit writes the write data to the tape.

摘要： To provide a technique for optimizing the processing order of recall requests in which the average latency time of a host apparatus is minimized. A storage manager accepts a request of the host apparatus for the recalling data from a tape library, and stores the request in a queue table. In response to storage of the request, the storage manager calculates the latency time for each request in all the conceivable execution orders for all the requests stored in the queue table. The storage manager determines the execution order which minimizes the total calculated latency time for all the requests including the active request, and rearranges the requests in the queue table.
