    摘要: A data management method for logical volume manager (LVM), called LVM includes a first type of physical volume and a second type of physical volume. Access speed of the first type of physical volume is higher than that of the second type of physical volume. Each physical volume has a plurality of physical extents, and a data storage method includes the following steps. Obtaining access frequencies of all the physical extents in statistics; performing a data migration operation, migrating and saving data in the physical extents satisfying an access frequency threshold value in the second type of physical volume to the physical extents without any data in the first type of physical volume; and rewriting a corresponding physical extent number for the migrated data.

    摘要: A method for skipping an initialization process of synchronization of an RAID 1 device skips synchronization process of the RAID1 device through a bitmap technique. First, an RAID1 device is established, a space of the same size is divided from each member disk of the RAID1 device for storing a bitmap corresponding to each data block on each member disk. When a read/write operation is executed on the RAID1 device, before the bit value in the bitmap corresponding to the data block is read, whether the bitmap exists or not is determined first, then corresponding operation is executed according to the bit value in the bitmap corresponding to data block requesting the read/write operation. The method skips synchronization process of the RAID 1 device during the initial establishment, thereby largely saving the time required by the synchronization process for initialization, and further improving the overall performance of the RAID1 device.

    摘要: A dual controller storage apparatus and a cache memory mirror method thereof are described. The storage apparatus includes a imaging environment module, a storage device, a first controller, and a second controller. The first controller has a virtual disk and a first cache memory. The second controller has a second cache memory. The present invent provides a imaging environment function to select the first or the second controller to serve an extranet according to the request of the extranet. If the imaging environment function selects the second controller, the data received from the extranet is written into the second cache memory. Communication between the second controller and the first controller is established, and the data of the second controller received from the extranet into the first cache memory and the virtual disk.
