    摘要: A mass storage business continuance time maker function host system that allows one or more MVS mainframe hosts to have the time to: establish business continuation volumes to mirror the standard mass storage volumes; synchronize business continuation volumes with the standard volumes so that their contents are identical; split off a business continuation volume from its standard volume counterpart to make the business continuation volume available for other purposes; and enable a business continuation volume to be used to restore the contents of a standard volume—all without halting or disrupting the business applications using standard volumes. These and related services are provided in a transparent manner to a host mainframe by manipulating MVS format volume labels, volume tables of contents and indexes, catalog entries, data set names and similar mechanisms on mass storage devices connected to host mainframes using the MVS operating system.

    摘要: Restoring data includes providing data in a first storage area that contains sections of data, providing data in a second storage area where the second type has, for each section of data thereof, at least one of: a pointer to a corresponding section of data of the first storage area and a pointer to corresponding section of data of a third storage area of the first type. In one embodiment, a sections of the first storage area are replaced with pointers to the third storage area. In other embodiments, sections of a fourth storage area of the first type are replaced with pointers to the third storage area and optionally with pointers to the first storage area. In another embodiment, data is copied from the second storage area to a third storage area of the second type.

    摘要: A method for copying a data file from a source device to a destination device. In response to a copy command from a requesting host application identifying the source file and the storage locations in a destination, an extents track is formed to establish an environment in which the file will be copied. The calling system receives an immediate response that the copy operation is complete even though no data has been copied. Application programs may access the file in either the source or the destination. A copy program transfers the file on a track-by-track basis to the destination storage locations. Procedures assure that any data access to a particular track in either the source or destination by any application prior to the transfer of that track are accommodated to maintain data integrity.

    摘要: Accessing data includes a host establishing a relationship between a first storage area of a first type containing data and a second storage area of a second type containing pointers to data provided in storage areas of the first type, where the storage areas are provided in a storage device coupled to the host. In response to the host writing data to a particular section of the first storage area after establishing the relationship, the particular section is copied from the first storage area to a third storage area of the first type prior to the write operation being executed. A corresponding pointer of the second storage area is adjusted to point to the third storage area.

    摘要: A method for copying data from a source disk storage device to a destination disk storage device. In response to a copy command from a requesting host application identifying the storage locations in source and destination disk storage devices, an environment is established. Thereafter a calling system receives an immediate response that the copy operation is complete even though no data has been copied. Application programs may access storage locations in either the source or the destination disk storage device during the copy phase. A copy program transfers the date on a track-by-track basis to the storage locations in the destination disk storage device. Procedures assure that any data access to a particular track in either the source or destination disk storage devices by any application prior to the transfer of that track are accommodated to maintain data integrity.
