In an external storage, an I/O process continues without any intervention of a user of a host system upon failure of a controller. When a failure occurs in a controller, a host system recognizes the failure of the controller. Before the failure is notified to the user and application program to stop the job, the substitute controller reads the SCSI-ID possessed by an SCSI port of the failed controller from a shared memory, registers the SCSI-ID of the SCSI port to the SCSI port associated with the substitute controller, and erases by a port address resetting facility of the substitute controller the SCSI-ID possessed by an SCSI port of the failed controller. Due to such provision, since the SCSI-ID specified at issuance of an I/O request is transferred between the controllers, the user or the host system need not alter the I/O request issuing route.

A buffer memory capable of storing contents of a plurality of tracks of a disk volume is provided in a disk controller or a disk drive, and in dump processing requested by a higher rank unit (CPU) to the disk controller, the data is immediately transferred from the buffer memory if the data to be dumped is present in the buffer memory, and if the data to be dumped is not present in the buffer memory, dump prefetching into the buffer memory is started and the execution of the dump processing is interrupted so that an on-line input/output operation other than the dump processing is accepted. When the dump prefetching into the buffer memory is over, the interrupted dump processing is resumed.

An external storage system connected to a host apparatus includes a plurality of storage devices, and a control unit for controlling the above described plurality of storage devices, wherein the above described control unit manages a storage space formed by the above described plurality of storage devices by dividing the storage space into a first storage pool to be directly accessed by the above described host apparatus and a second storage pool not to be directly accessed by the above described host apparatus.

A packaging structure is provided which is especially useful for solid-state imaging devices and other semiconductor devices. An Al film is selectively formed on inner lead portions and portions of positioning reference plates located within a ceramic packaging body. On the other hand, the outer lead portions that are exposed outside the packaging body are coated with Sn plating layer. Particular care is taken not to locate the Sn plating layer over the Al film. Contamination faults due to Sn swelling and stripping are prevented, while bonding strength of the Al clad inner lead portions with Al internal fine wires and with fit glass joining the ceramic packaging body together is kept high.

A storage system adapted to be coupled to a plurality of host devices via a fibre channel. The storage system including a plurality of storage devices, at least a portion of the plurality of storage devices corresponding to a logical unit of a plurality of logical units, the logical unit having a logical unit number (LUN). The storage system also including a storage control device having a cache memory and controlling to store data, addressed to the LUN, into the portion of the plurality of storage devices. The storages system also including an input device being adapted to be used to set information, which is used to prevent an unauthorized access to the logical unit and which corresponds to a relationship between a host device of the plurality of host devices and the logical unit.

A program selecting means 22 which selects an exercise program appropriate for a user on the basis of user information obtained by the user information obtaining means 21, a device control means 25 which causes a passive exercise device 1 to perform an operation on the basis of the selected exercise program, and a program varying means 23 which varies the selected exercise program in a prescribed range in accordance with an instruction of the user are comprised. A user can vary the exercise program being selected on the basis of the user information, in accordance with user's preference. Because this variation is permitted only within a prescribed range, such a variation that is to provide the user with excessive stress can be prevented.

Disclosed is storage system, that is, an array-type disk apparatus which is provided with an error monitor section which monitors the status of error occurrence in a disk drive and instructs initiation of mirroring between the disk drive and a spare disk drive when the number of errors occurred of the disk drive exceeds a specified value, and a mirror section which performs mirroring between the disk drive and spare disk drive. Storage system, that is, the array-type disk apparatus may be provided with an error monitor section which monitors the status of error occurrence in a disk drive and gives such an instruction as to set the status of the disk drive in a temporary blocked state, and a data restoring section which executes data restoration by reading data from the temporary blocked disk drive when reading from another disk drive constituting a disk array group is not possible during data restoration.

A method of selecting logical volumes that are the targets for data migration to equilibrate the load on a system, based on the accessing data of the physical drives and logical drives under the disk array controllers, without increasing the load of the disk array controller. An external manager communicates with two or more disk array controllers, gathers and manages the access data and the configuration data relating to the physical drives and logical volumes of each disk array controller, and prepares an optimum data migration instruction to equilibrate the access load.

An oscillation-type exercise device is provided with a pair of reins on the right and on the left disposed in front of the user seated on a seat portion. The base ends of a pair of the reins are coupled to a pair of extensible mechanisms housed inside the seat portion. Handle portions formed almost in the shape of a ring so as to be gripped by the user are attached to the tip ends of a pair of the reins. Each extensible mechanism drives a rotary plate to rotate by the driving of a motor, and changes the length of the rein, that is, it causes the rein to substantially extend and retract. Accordingly, it is possible to exert an exercise effect not only on the lower back and the legs but also to the upper half of the body.
