摘要:
In an information storage system having at least a storage medium which includes a plurality of storage areas. Each storage area is associated with one logical drive. Using a control device and in conjunction with an I/O control device and a memory, the system can process coexisting code and image information to permit a designated logical drive to access an area of the storage areas that corresponds to the designated logical drive according to correspondence relation information.

A storage system comprises a storage medium including a plurality of physical storage areas. The storage system controls a host computer to recognize a logical volume having a plurality of virtual storage areas, reads the data from the physical storage area assigned to the virtual storage area of the logical volume, determines whether or not the read data includes only the specific pattern data, and cancels the assignment of the physical storage area to the virtual storage area if the read data includes only the specific pattern data.

According to the prior art storage system, in order to add a storage device to a pool after a storage system has been operated for a certain period of time, the performance may be varied significantly according to the access performance of the application using the pool, and it was not possible to realize an optimum allocation corresponding to the operation form if the storage device is set to be included in a pool of a given tier based on the type of the storage device. Therefore, the present invention provides a system in which a performance test is performed in accordance with an access tendency of the application using the pool to thereby compute the tier capable of having the storage device added thereto, based on which the storage device can be allocated to an appropriate pool.

Multiple storage area groups into which multiple storage areas provided by multiple storage devices are classified with reference to storage area attributes are managed. The multiple logical volumes to which, in accordance with a write request to at least one address included in multiple addresses in the logical volume, at least one storage area included in the multiple storage areas is allocated are provided. In accordance with the access condition of the at least one address in the logical volume, the data written to the at least one address by the write request is migrated from the at least one storage area included in one of the multiple storage area groups to at least one storage area in another storage area group included in the multiple storage area groups.
摘要:
A wire harness has an exterior component (11a) that covers a certain part of at least one wires (12). The exterior component (11a) has parts having different hardness, including a relatively hard first part (111a), a relatively soft second part (112a), and a third part (113a) having an intermediate hardness between that of the first parts (111a, 112a). The first part is formed on a surface of the exterior component and functions as a shape keeping member and a protector. The second and third parts (112a, 113a) surround the certain part of the at least one wire 12 and each functions as a cushioning material and a muffler/soundproofing material. The first part (111a), the second part (112a), and the third part (113a) are formed integrally from a non-woven fabric (2) with thermo plasticity.
摘要:
The statuses of an actual area are (1) a first status which indicates that [the actual area] is already initialized and can be assigned to a virtual area, (2) a second status which indicates that [the actual area] is already assigned to a virtual area, and (3) a third status which indicates that [the actual area] cannot be assigned to a virtual area and initialization which is specified data write is to be performed. The storage controller limits the total virtual volume capacity which is the total capacity of one or more virtual volumes which are associated with the pool, in accordance with whether the pool comprises an actual page in the third status or not, to the capacity of the pool or smaller.

Multiple storage area groups into which multiple storage areas provided by multiple storage devices are classified with reference to storage area attributes are managed. The multiple logical volumes to which, in accordance with a write request to at least one address included in multiple addresses in the logical volume, at least one storage area included in the multiple storage areas is allocated are provided. In accordance with the access condition of the at least one address in the logical volume, the data written to the at least one address by the write request is migrated from the at least one storage area included in one of the multiple storage area groups to at least one storage area in another storage area group included in the multiple storage area groups.
摘要:
A storage device controlling apparatus includes: a plurality of channel controllers having a circuit board on which are formed a file access processing section receiving requests to input and output data in files as units from an information processing apparatus and an I/O processor outputting I/O requests corresponding to the requests to input and output data to a storage device; and a disk controller executing input and output of data into and from the storage device in response to the I/O requests sent from the I/O processors. In the storage device controlling apparatus, the disk controller performs a replication management processing whereby data is also written into a second logical volume to store a copy of the data in the second logical volume, when the data is written into a first logical volume.

摘要:
This storage apparatus has a controller for controlling, upon receiving a read request regarding data of the snapshot image of a prescribed generation from the host system, the reading of the data of the operational volume or the differential data of the pool volume as data of a snapshot image of a corresponding generation based on the generation of the snapshot and the storage destination of data of the snapshot image managed by the snapshot management unit; wherein the controller performs control so as to store the data stored in the operational volume as replication data in the pool volume when reading the data from the operational volume, and read the replication data stored in the pool volume when rereading the data stored in the operational volume.
