摘要： A storage system stores discrete data units and corresponding metadata. The storage system receives data for storage, calculates a first hash value for the data, and identifies a set of compression conditions that correspond to a client ID associated with the data. When the compression conditions indicate that the data should be compressed, the data is compressed to create compressed data. Following compression of the data, the storage system calculates a second hash value for the compressed data, and stores the second hash value in the metadata, while also retaining the first hash value in the metadata. The storage system stores the compressed data, and deletes the uncompressed version of the data. An integrity check of the data stored in the storage system can be carried out periodically using the first or second hash values contained in metadata for each discrete data unit.
摘要翻译：存储系统存储离散数据单元和对应的元数据。存储系统接收用于存储的数据，计算数据的第一哈希值，并且识别与与数据相关联的客户端ID相对应的一组压缩条件。当压缩条件指示数据应该被压缩时，数据被压缩以产生压缩数据。在数据压缩之后，存储系统计算压缩数据的第二散列值，并将第二散列值存储在元数据中，同时还将第一散列值保留在元数据中。存储系统存储压缩数据，并删除未压缩版本的数据。可以使用包含在每个离散数据单元的元数据中的第一或第二散列值来周期性地执行存储在存储系统中的数据的完整性检查。

摘要： A disk storage system containing a storage device having a record medium for holding the data, a plurality of storage sub-systems having a controller for controlling the storage device, a first interface node coupled to a computer using the data stored in the plurality of storage sub-systems, a plurality of second interface nodes connected to the storage sub-systems, a switch connecting to a first interface node and a plurality of second interface nodes to perform frame transfer therebetween based on node address information added to the frame. The first interface node has a configuration table to store structural information for the memory storage system and in response to the frame sent from the computer, analyzes the applicable frame, converts information relating to the transfer destination of that frame based on structural information held in the configuration table, and transfers that frame to the switch.

摘要： Methods and apparatuses for backing up virtual volumes effectively by eliminating transfer and preservation of parts of virtual volumes, which contain no data. By representing virtual volumes as virtual files in a virtual file system, it is thereby possible to avoid needlessly backing up empty data space in the virtual volume. In one implementation, a storage system includes multiple virtual volumes and a virtual file system as well as a storage system control module. Each virtual volume in the multiple virtual volumes is represented as a virtual file within the virtual file system with each virtual file representing data actually stored within the virtual volume; and the storage system control module facilitates backing up a selected virtual volume, the operations involving accessing the virtual file system on the storage system; and reading the virtual file corresponding to the selected virtual volume.

摘要： It is made possible to update information registered in a database of iSNS, SLP and the like in response to a configurational change in a storage device, and for a host computer to discover a disk volume. In response to changes in contents of operation to alter a storage configuration such as in creating or deleting a volume or LUN, contents of the alteration are reflected in the database of iSNS or SLP. Also, in response to a change in setting of LUN masking, a discovery domain of iSNS or attribute values of SLP are updated so that the host computer can discover the disk volume. Also, objects and services are reregistered periodically according to a registration period of iSNS or lifetime of SLP to prevent registered contents from expiring.

摘要： In a tiered storage system, unintended degradation of performance, reliability and security caused by applying a single instance function to the data in the storage system is avoided. When multiple identical files are stored in the storage system, the storage system determines whether the single instance function should be applied to the identical files or not, and a tier into which the actual instance of the data is stored, depending on the characteristics of the tiers. Thus, performance, reliability and security are maintained at the same level as when the single instance function is not applied. The invention may be implemented when the single instance function is applied to files in the same tier, or when the single instance is applied according to specified groups of logical volumes, so that the single instance function is applied to files in the same group even if the group encompasses multiple tiers.
摘要翻译：在分层存储系统中，避免了通过将单个实例功能应用于存储系统中的数据而引起的性能，可靠性和安全性的意外降级。当在存储系统中存储多个相同的文件时，存储系统确定单个实例功能是否应该被应用于相同的文件，以及存储数据的实际实例的层，这取决于层级。因此，性能，可靠性和安全性保持在与不应用单实例功能时相同的水平。当将单个实例功能应用于同一层中的文件时，或者当根据指定的逻辑卷组应用单个实例时，可以实现本发明，使得单个实例功能被应用于同一组中的文件，即使该组包含多个层。
