    摘要: When recording a large volume of data such as video data, audio data, or the like, it is desirable to delete menus for unnecessary files and thereby enable quick and efficient access to data. An optical recording medium having a data recording medium which is divided into at least a readable/writable first region and a second region used exclusively for data reading. The first region has recorded therein a title management information table in which filenames of software titles are registered in the second region, and a loader for executing or reproducing these software titles, wherein the loader and the software title correspond to each other. The second region has recorded therein at least two types of software titles.

    摘要: A storage system includes a storage and control units. In each of the control units: a relay unit relays access to the storage; an access controller accesses the storage through one of the relay unit in the control unit and the relay unit in another of the control units; and an operational-state controller determines whether or not the relay unit in the above-mentioned another control unit is usable when the operational-state controller detects occurrence of an abnormality in the above-mentioned another control unit, and makes the above-mentioned another control unit transition to a partially-operational state when the relay unit in the above-mentioned another control unit is usable. In the partially-operational state, at least the access controller in the above-mentioned another control unit is not in operation and the access controller in the control unit can access the storage through the relay unit in the above-mentioned another control unit.

    摘要: A code conversion apparatus, a disk drive, a code buffer, and an encryption buffer are included in a storage. The code buffer stores therein first encrypted data present in the disk drive, and the encryption buffer stores therein first unencrypted data present in the disk drive. An encrypting unit encrypts the first unencrypted data present in the encryption buffer to predetermined encrypted data, and a decrypting unit decrypts the first encrypted data present in the code buffer to second unencrypted data. Moreover, a re-encrypting unit decrypts the first encrypted data present in the code buffer to third unencrypted data and encrypts the third unencrypted data to second encrypted data different from the first encrypted data.

    摘要: In a storage system, a first reboot controller in a first control apparatus causes a second control apparatus to reboot, when it is detected that a second control apparatus has stopped access operations. The first reboot controller also places a boot event record in a non-volatile storage device of the second control apparatus to indicate that the rebooting of the second control apparatus has been caused by the first control apparatus. After that, a second reboot controller in the second control apparatus causes at least the first control apparatus to reboot while keeping intact the cache data stored in a cache memory of the first control apparatus, when the access controller of the first control apparatus is stopped while the second control apparatus is rebooted, and when a boot event record is found in the non-volatile storage device of the second control apparatus.

    摘要: A disk array device has: a CM separating part that, when abnormality occurs in a CM, separates the CM in which the abnormality has occurred from a storage system after write of CM operation information data to a hard disk is completed; and communication path reconfiguring parts that reconfigure communication paths between the CM in which the abnormality has occurred and DAs. When abnormality occurs in the CM, the communication paths between the CM and the DAs are reconfigured, and after the CM operation information data of the CM is written to the hard disk, the CM is separated. Therefore, the write processing is not interrupted halfway, so that the useful operation information data regarding the cause of the problem occurrence can be written to the hard disk having a sufficient storage area.
