    摘要: A key server provides keys for encryption and/or decryption for data storage drives. A first communication link provides at least data communication with respect to the data storage drive; a second communication link, separate from the first communication link, provides communication between the data storage drive and the key server; and the key server provides the encryption and/or decryption keys over the second communication link.

    摘要: An automated data storage library accesses data stored on storage media contained in cartridges in response to commands from an external host. The cartridges may include cartridge memory and a component in the library may include a cartridge memory interface for reading data from and/or writing data to the cartridge memory. When a cartridge is to be stored in the library, the library modifies the contents of the cartridge memory, or the contents of the storage media such that the data stored on the cartridge becomes inaccessible, thereby preventing access to the data outside of the library. To perform an authorized access, the library restores the contents of the cartridge memory or the storage media. Alternatively, the library provides a correction or correction algorithm to the drive to allow access to the data stored on the storage media without removing the access protection of the storage media. The cartridge memory or storage media may also or alternatively include an identifier which permits access to the data only by the identified physical and/or logical library(s).

    摘要: Provided are a method, system, and article of manufacture for writing data in a tape medium having wraps. A layout of the tape is provided including at least one segment within a full length of first set of wraps for writing user data and at least one segment within a full length of a second set of wraps for writing a work copy of the user data. User data is received to write to the tape medium. Detection is made of whether data writing is occurring in a specified write mode. A work copy is written to available segments in the second set of wraps not having user data in response to the data writing occurring in the specified write mode.

    摘要: A read channel and method using that read channel are disclosed. The read channel comprises an analog to digital converter which asynchronously samples at a fixed rate an analog signal formed by reading a data track, where that data track was written to a data storage medium at a symbol rate and an interpolator interconnected with the analog to digital converter. The read channel further comprises a fractionally-spaced equalizer, where the interpolator provides an interpolated signal to the fractionally-spaced equalizer at an interpolation rate, where that interpolation rate is greater than the symbol rate. The fractionally-spaced equalizer forms a synchronous equalized signal. The read channel further comprises a gain control module interconnected with the fractionally-spaced equalizer, and a sequence detector interconnected with the gain control module.

    摘要: A cartridge handling system and method are provided to initialize a data storage cartridge having rewritable media and a cartridge memory for tamper resistant write once recording. During initialization of the cartridge for write once recording, selected data set information table fields of each data set are scrambled. The scrambling algorithm may employ a random number generator seeded with a unique cartridge identifier. The fields thus becomes unreadable if the unique identifier is changed, such as if the cartridge memory of the cartridge has been altered or replaced.
