Maintaining high availability of objects for both read and write transactions. Secondary copies of cached objects are created and maintained on disks of a secondary caching node and in remote data storage. In response to an update request, the secondary copies of cached objects are updated. Secondary cached objects are synchronously invalidated in response to the update request, and the update is asynchronously propagated to a secondary caching node.

Technologies are described herein for temporarily writing data to a buffer zone on a recording medium of a storage device when the device is operating in a vibration condition. A vibration condition is detected in the storage device, and upon detecting the vibration condition, data of a current write operation is written to a buffer zone on a recording medium of the storage device, the buffer zone being configured with a lower areal density of storage than primary storage zones on the recording medium. At a later time, an idle condition may be detected in the device, and upon detecting the idle condition, it may be determined whether the vibration condition exists. If it is determined that the vibration condition no longer exists, the data is transferred from the buffer zone to the primary storage zones on the recording medium.

In one embodiment, a system includes a disk cache and a controller configured to create a cache resident partition in the disk cache, the cache resident partition being configured to store data thereto that is not subject to HSM, manage the cache resident partition to have a size that is greater than a first minimum size and less than or equal to a total size of the disk cache, receive data to store to the disk cache, store the data to the cache resident partition at least initially, create tape-managed partitions in the disk cache, each of the tape-managed partitions being configured to store data that is subject to HSM, and manage the tape-managed partitions to have a size that is greater than a second minimum size and less than or equal to a total size of the disk cache less a size of all other partitions combined.

To detect an abnormality of logical and physical addresses, a storage device includes: plural drives each having a storage medium configuring a logical volume provided to a host device; a front end I/F that receives an I/O request including a logical address for identifying a logical storage area of the logical volume, and user data from the host computer; a processor that controls conversion from the logical address into the physical address for identifying a physical storage area of the storage medium; and a back end I/F that controls write/read of user data with respect to the drives based on the physical address. In the drives, data where a first guarantee code obtained based on the physical address and the logical address corresponding to the physical address is added to the user data is stored in the physical storage area designated by the physical address of the storage medium.

Systems and methods are disclosed for cache data value tracking. In an embodiment, a controller may be configured to select data; set a node weight for the data representing a cache hit potential for the data; store a first time stamp value for the data representing when the data was accessed; and store the data in a cache memory based on the node weight and the first time stamp value. In another embodiment, a method may comprise setting a node weight for data associated with a data access command, storing a first access counter value for the data representing a number of times new data has been stored to the cache memory when the data was accessed, and removing the data from the cache memory or maintaining the data in the cache memory based on the node weight and the first access counter value.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system for processing a database query stores one or more result sets for one or more first database queries in a data store. The system receives a second database query and compares the second database query to the one or more first database queries to determine presence of a corresponding result set in the data store for the second database query. The system provides the corresponding result set from the data store for the second database query based on the comparison. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for processing a database query in substantially the same manners described above.

摘要:
Data-integrity protection of a cached storage device is provided in an alternate operating system (OS) environment by replacing an actual partition table for a disk with a dummy partition table and scrambling a predetermined amount of data on the cached storage device. The dummy partition table is designed to render data on the disk inaccessible when the dummy partition table is used by an OS to access the data. During operation, the data on the disk can be accessed using information based on the actual partition table. In response to receiving a request to disable caching, the dummy partition table on the disk is replaced with the actual partition table and any scrambled data is unscrambled, thus rendering the data on the formally cached disk accessible in an alternate OS environment where appropriate caching software is not present.

A storage device made up of multiple storage media is configured such that one such media serves as a cache for data stored on another of such media. The device includes a controller configured to manage the cache by consolidating information concerning obsolete data stored in the cache with information concerning data no longer desired to be stored in the cache, and erase segments of the cache containing one or more of the blocks of obsolete data and the blocks of data that are no longer desired to be stored in the cache to produce reclaimed segments of the cache.

In one embodiment, a method includes loading a tape cartridge into at least one tape drive installed in an automated tape library, where a tape of the tape cartridge has at least two partitions; writing plurality of data blocks on a first of the partitions; and writing an index on a second of the partitions, wherein the index includes information about at least one of files and the blocks on the first partition.
