摘要： A method for concurrent data migration includes classifying files to be migrated into plural jobs, selecting media to which to migrate each job, and using plural drives concurrently to write the jobs to the media. The selection of a medium is performed in a way that prevents the number of writeable media from exceeding the number of available drives, unless no allocated medium has sufficient space to store any files in a migration job. A medium is preferentially selected that has already been allocated for writing, has space to store at least one file in the job, is not in use for another job, and can be robotically mounted on a drive. If such a medium-does not exist, then the set of available media is canvassed to locate an alternative medium.

摘要： A technique for recalling data objects stored on media. A queue is created for each medium on which data objects are located, where each request to recall a data object is placed on the queue corresponding to the medium on which the data object is located. A queue is “active” when its corresponding medium is mounted and being used for recall; otherwise the queue is “non-active.” A thread is created for each active queue, where the thread retrieves from a medium the requested items on the active queue. When plural drives are available for mounting and reading media, plural queues may be active concurrently, so that the plural queues' respective threads may recall items from the plural media in parallel. Preferably, the requests on each queue are organized in an order such that the offset locations of the requested items form two monotonically increasing sequences.

摘要： A technique is provided whereby a stream of data located in a first storage location is registered for migration administration and according to preset criteria, portion(s) of the stream of data that are suited to another storage location are migrated to maximize system storage efficiencies. The file system may have use of facilities that enable the monitoring of files/streams that have been registered for migration administration or files/streams may be polled according to preset criteria. If the stream of data has portions to migrate to another storage location, the hierarchical storage management (HSM) system migrates the data to the other storage location, such as to long term or off-line storage, and preserves the data relationships of the stream via metadata. The technique allows for multiple volumes to be spanned by the migration target location, and multiple file systems may service the source and target.
