    摘要: Methods, storage controllers, and systems for non-volatile storage element programming are described. One method includes programming user data in pages associated with a set of wordlines of an erase block of a non-volatile, solid-state storage element. The method further includes selecting at least one of the wordlines of the set programmed with the user data and restricting further programming of user data in the pages associated with the selected wordline. In some embodiments, the selected wordline occurs subsequent to the pages associated with the other wordlines of the set in a page programming order for the erase block.

    摘要: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for managing physical regions in a solid-state storage device. The definition module defines a physical storage region on solid-state storage media of a solid-state storage device. The physical storage region includes a subset of total physical storage capacity on the solid-state storage media. The storage controller performs memory operations within the physical storage region such that the memory operations are bounded to the physical storage region. The implementation module implements the physical storage region definition with respect to the storage controller for the solid-state storage media.

    摘要: A system that emulates a tape cartridge mounted in a tape drive, and methods of operation are disclosed. The emulated tape drive communicates with a client using an interface protocol defining an addressable range. The emulated tape cartridge has a virtual addressable range that matches or exceeds the addressable range defined in the interface protocol. One or more storage appliances provide the emulation of the tape drive and a plurality of virtual volumes. An interface manager disposed between the client and the storage appliances mounts the virtual volumes as necessary to assemble the emulated tape cartridge.

    摘要: The dynamic server switching system maintains a list in each client which identifies the primary server for that client and the preferred communication method as well as a hierarchy of successively secondary servers and communication method pairs. In the event that the client does not have requests served by the designated primary server or the designated communication method, the system traverses the list to ascertain the identity of the first available alternate server-communication method pair. The client then uses this retrieved data to initiate future requests. The client periodically tests the primary server-communication method pair to determine whether the fault has been cleared. If so, the client reestablishes the originally selected primary server-communication method pair as the request route. This system dynamically load balances in the face of failures, handles transient faults and can use a neuromorphic processing element to monitor system activity and rewrite entries in the lists as a function of changing system activity. In this manner, the system provides dynamic server switching for maximum service availability without consuming significant processing resources.
