摘要： A method to assign addresses to a plurality of data storage devices, by providing a switch and (N) data storage devices, where each of those (N) data storage devices is interconnected with said switch. The method further establishes (M) arbitrated loop physical addresses (“AL_PAs”), where (M) is less than (N), and assigns a different one of each of the (M) AL_PAs to a different one of the (N) data storage devices, such that the (N) data storage devices comprise (M) AL_PA-assigned data storage devices and (P) non-address-assigned data storage devices. The method then detects a failure of an (i)th AL_PA-assigned data storage device, and transfers the (i)th AL_PA from the failed address-assigned data storage device to a (j)th data storage device, where that (j)th data storage device comprises one of the (P) previously non-addressed data storage devices.
摘要翻译：一种通过提供交换机和（N）数据存储设备来分配地址给多个数据存储设备的方法，其中这些（N）个数据存储设备中的每一个与所述交换机互连。该方法进一步建立（M）仲裁环路物理地址（“AL_PAs”），其中（M）小于（N），并且将（M）个AL_PA中的每一个分配给（N）数据存储设备，使得（N）个数据存储设备包括（M）AL_PA分配的数据存储设备和（P）非地址分配的数据存储设备。然后，该方法检测第（i）个AL_PA分配的数据存储设备的故障，并且将（i）第二AL_PA从故障地址分配数据存储设备传送到第（j）个数据存储设备，其中（j ）数据存储设备包括（P）先前未寻址的数据存储设备之一。

摘要： A method provides for dynamic data logging in a storage subsystem. The method determines if a plurality of storage devices has been assigned as a plurality of hot spare devices in the storage subsystem. If the plurality of hot spare devices are assigned, the method determines from the plurality of hot spare devices whether a plurality of storage types with a maximum number of spare devices is present. If a plurality of storage types is present, the method selects a hot spare device from a storage type having the smallest capacity to assign as a logging device, otherwise, the method calculates a plurality of ratios of a first number of storage devices of a shared storage type to a second number of storage devices to which the first number of storage devices can act for as hot spare devices, selecting a storage device with the lowest ratio as the logging device.

摘要： A storage system includes a RAID adapter, disk array switches, sub-processors, and hard disk drives. A disk-related operation is initiated in the RAID adapter which dispatches a command to a disk array processor (or sub-processor) in an enclosure for the processor to perform the operation on one or more drives. The adapter may dispatch the command to a processor in a single enclosure through a disk array switch or to processors in multiple enclosures through switches in upstream enclosures. The adapter is then free to perform other functions. The processor commences the specified operation on one or more selected drives. Upon completion of the operation, the results are transmitted by the processor and received by the adapter. Offloading the task to the distributed sub-processors reduces the burden on the RAID adapter, reduces system bandwidth usage, and enables access to other drives to be maintained.
摘要翻译：存储系统包括RAID适配器，磁盘阵列交换机，子处理器和硬盘驱动器。磁盘相关操作在RAID适配器中发起，该适配器将命令分配给机箱中的磁盘阵列处理器（或子处理器），以便处理器对一个或多个驱动器执行操作。适配器可以通过磁盘阵列交换机将命令分派到单个机箱中的处理器，或通过上游机箱中的交换机将命令分派到多个机箱中的处理器。然后适配器可以自由执行其他功能。处理器在一个或多个选定的驱动器上开始指定的操作。操作完成后，结果由处理器传送并由适配器接收。将任务卸载到分布式子处理器可减轻RAID适配器的负担，减少系统带宽使用，并允许对其他驱动器进行访问。

摘要： Data storage systems and methods and computer program product for managing data storage systems are provided. The system includes at least first and second storage enclosures, each having a plurality of hard disks configured as first and second arrays of disks and an intra-enclosure path between the first and second arrays. The intra-enclosure path is disabled during normal operation of the storage system. Inter-enclosure paths respectively link the first arrays in the first and second storage enclosures and the second arrays in the first and second storage enclosures and are enabled during normal operation of the storage system. The system also includes a controller having a first path to the first array in the first enclosure and a second path to the second array in the first enclosure whereby, during normal operation of the system, the first arrays in the first and second enclosures are configured as a first storage loop and the second arrays in the first and second enclosures are configured as a second storage loop. The controller is configured to detect a failure in the first array of the first enclosure and to enable the intra-enclosure path between the first and second arrays in the second enclosure whereby the second storage loop is reconfigured to include the first array in the second enclosure.

摘要： A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for providing management of serial attached small computer system interface (SAS) storage devices. A host computer comprises a storage controller connected to a SAS port expander comprising a plurality of ports that are logically assigned to target storage devices. The device ports of all storage devices physically attached to the SAS port expander are bypassed to remove their logical SAS expander port assignments. The storage controller unbypasses the device ports, allowing it to recognize the presence of all physically attached storage devices. The recognized storage devices are inventoried and storage devices that are not logically assigned a SAS expander port are designated as being spare storage devices. SAS expander ports are logically assigned to the non-spare storage devices and SAS storage operations are performed.

摘要： A high density storage enclosure houses first and second pluralities of hard disk drives (HDDs). The enclosure may be partitioned into a plurality of virtual enclosures, the first plurality of HDDs being associated with a first virtual enclosure and the second plurality of HDDs being associated with a second virtual enclosure. Configuration of the storage enclosure is performed by an SES processor in the storage enclosure accessing configuration parameters received from an external configuration unit coupled to the storage enclosure. The virtual enclosures may be configured as two (or more) independent virtual enclosures on two (or more) independent fabrics or may be configured in a trunked manner. Power supplies and cooling blowers in the storage enclosure may also be partitioned and assigned to be managed by SES processors in the virtual enclosures.
