    摘要: A system migrates data between a source device and a target device in a storage system. A processor is operational within a local domain of the storage system. A redundant array of independent disks (RAID) controller electrically connected to the processor. The RAID controller divides a capacity of the source device into a plurality of sub-regions, locks the sub-regions from storage activity, establishes a mirroring relationship for write data updates between the source device and target device, and assigns the processor to copy data from the source device to the target device. A method of migrating data includes dividing a capacity of a source device into a plurality of sub-regions, locking the sub-regions from storage activity, establishing a mirroring relationship for write data updates between the source device and a target device, and assigning a local processor to copy data from the source device to the target device.

    摘要: A non-volatile flash memory comprises a plurality of non-volatile memories where a first non-volatile memory is pre-programmed (erased) with all ones, and at least a second non-volatile memory is pre-programmed with a seed value that takes advantage of the reduced programming time for less than six zeros. When writing (programming) a data byte, the memory system looks up the data byte in one or more seed tables to determine a portion of non-volatile memory to which the memory system may write the data byte with a reduced programming time. The memory system then records the location of the data byte in an address translation table so the data byte may be accessed.

    摘要: A method is disclosed to set the speed of a network. The method supplies a network interconnected with a system controller and a plurality of switch domains, where each of those plurality of switch domains comprises one or more information storage devices and a switch domain controller, and sets by each of the plurality of switch domains a signaling rate for that switch domain. The method queries in-band by the system controller each of the plurality of switch domains for that switch domain's signaling rate, and provides in-band by each of the plurality of switch domains the signaling rate for that switch domain. The method provides in-band by the system controller to each of the plurality of switch domains a first speed selection command specifying a first network speed, and resets by each of the plurality of switch domains the signaling rate for that switch domain to the first network speed.

    摘要: A method to assign addresses to a plurality of data storage devices, by providing a switch and (N) data storage devices, where each of those (N) data storage devices is interconnected with said switch. The method further establishes (M) arbitrated loop physical addresses (“AL_PAs”), where (M) is less than (N), and assigns a different one of each of the (M) AL_PAs to a different one of the (N) data storage devices, such that the (N) data storage devices comprise (M) AL_PA-assigned data storage devices and (P) non-address-assigned data storage devices. The method then detects a failure of an (i)th AL_PA-assigned data storage device, and transfers the (i)th AL_PA from the failed address-assigned data storage device to a (j)th data storage device, where that (j)th data storage device comprises one of the (P) previously non-addressed data storage devices.

    摘要: A method provides for dynamic data logging in a storage subsystem. The method determines if a plurality of storage devices has been assigned as a plurality of hot spare devices in the storage subsystem. If the plurality of hot spare devices are assigned, the method determines from the plurality of hot spare devices whether a plurality of storage types with a maximum number of spare devices is present. If a plurality of storage types is present, the method selects a hot spare device from a storage type having the smallest capacity to assign as a logging device, otherwise, the method calculates a plurality of ratios of a first number of storage devices of a shared storage type to a second number of storage devices to which the first number of storage devices can act for as hot spare devices, selecting a storage device with the lowest ratio as the logging device.
