    摘要: An apparatus, system, and method are provided for communicating control messages between a first device and a second device. The apparatus, system, and method include a communication module that directs control messages between a first device and a second device through an intermediate device. The intermediate device is coupled to the first device by a control path and to the second device by a data path. The apparatus, system, and method also include a translation module and a transmission module that cooperate to translate control messages received over the control path at the intermediate device to transport data messages and transport data messages received over the data path at the second device to control messages. Transport data messages are sent over the data path to the second device and control messages from the second device are sent over the control path to the first device.

    摘要: The process, apparatus, and system estimate the size of a data block in a data buffer to efficiently recover the data block to the memory of a computer. The data block resides in a data buffer prior to being written to a destination medium. If the data block cannot be written to the destination medium, the process, apparatus, and system create a data block size estimate. The data block size estimate may be based on the size of the largest data block in the data buffer. Alternately, the data block size estimate may be based on the size of a data block in the memory of the computer. The computer reserves a memory space proportional to the data block size estimate and recovers the data block to the memory space.

    摘要: A storage subsystem employs one or more device controllers for controlling a plurality of devices. At the request of a host, a device controller controls a writing of data from the host to device including a media mounted in a first drive. In response to a detection of a defect in the device, the device controller controls a swap of the first drive for the second drive, which includes the device controller recovering any first portion of the data buffered in the first drive and/or any second portion of the data recorded on the first media, and writing any recovered first portion of the data and/or any recovered second portion of the data to the second drive.

    摘要: A read request of a sequential media from a host is executed with a read request data block size equal to a maximum recorded data block size parameter of the variable data block size storage device. Subsequently, if warranted, an adaptive read ahead data block size variable is set to equal a recorded data block size of data recorded on the sequential media that is responsive to the execution of the read request, and one or more read ahead requests of the sequential media are executed with a read ahead data block size equal to the adaptive read ahead data block size variable. The adaptive read ahead data block size variable is conditionally adjusted based on the recorded data block size(s) of data recorded on the sequential media that is responsive to the execution(s) of the read ahead request(s)

    摘要: Within a distributed data processing domain including a requester data processing node and one or more target data processing nodes, an update synchronization of a domain information file as stored on each target data processing node with each domain information file including a local information file having local information an individual operation of the requester data processing node and a global information file having global information associated with a collective operation of all of the data processing nodes. First, the requester data processing node detects domain update information including local update information or global update information. Second, the requester data processing node synchronizes an update of the local information file or the global information file of each domain information file as stored on the target data processing node(s) based on the respective local update information or the respective global update information of the detected domain update information.

    摘要: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for recovering a message from a failed node. A message module communicates a message to a request queue and a copy queue. A transfer module transfers the message from the request queue to a first target node in response to the message residing in the request queue. A detection module detects a failure of the first target node. A recovery module copies the message from the copy queue to the request queue in response to the failure of the first target node and the message residing in the copy queue. The transfer module further transfers the message from the request queue to a second target node in response to the message residing in the request queue.
