    摘要: A method for handling data in a plurality of data storage disks having user data sectors and corresponding parity sectors, the method being used when the disks are being operated in a degraded mode wherein data in sectors of an inoperative user data disk are reconstructed from data in the corresponding sectors of the other user data disks and the corresponding parity entry. The reconstructed user data in a user data sector of the inoperative disk is written into the corresponding parity sector in place of the parity entry therein, before any new data is written into the corresponding sector of an operative disk. Information identifying the inoperative disk is written into a specified identification region of the parity disk to indicate that such operation has occurred. The new data is then written into the corresponding sector of the operative disk.

    摘要: A method for providing on-line replacement of a module which is at a specified position in an array of modules connected to a common control processor so that all other modules in the array can continue operating during the replacement operation. When the module is removed an indication is provided to the control processor showing that removal has occurred and identifying the position thereof. When the replacement has occurred an indication thereof is provided to the control processor, the replacement module is tested, and the state of the replacement module is updated to place it in the same state it would have been in if it had not been replaced.

    摘要: A method for handling data in a plurality of data storage disks having user data sectors and corresponding parity sectors, the method being used when the disks are being operated in a non-degraded or a degraded mode wherein a non-volatile RAM is used in an array control processor which controls the operation of such disks. When new data is to be written into the array, the non-volatile RAM stores information identifying the array, the starting sector into which data is to be written and the number of sectors to be used for writing the new data so that parity and data entries in corresponding sectors can be matched when a power failure occurs. Further, when opening a new array, the data and parity entries in corresponding sectors can be matched and verified, the operation for such matching being performed in between other operations that are being performed by the control processors (i.e., in the "background" thereof).

    摘要: There is disclosed a method for use in managing databases in data storage systems comprising a plurality of nodes. A request is received to provision storage for a specified application intending to use a database. Based on application-awareness, the storage system is provisioned for storing the database in response to receiving the request. Database tables are distributed across the nodes based on a forecasted first I/O profile between application and database. Information is captured in connection with the activity between the application and database. A second I/O profile is determined based on the captured information. The second I/O profile is an actual in-running I/O profile between application and database. The first I/O profile and second I/O profile are compared. The database tables are re-organized on the nodes based on the comparison identifying a discrepancy between first and second I/O profiles such that storage system is rebalanced.
