摘要： A method and apparatus for recovery from faults in a loop network (500) is provided. The loop network (500) has a plurality of ports (520, 530, 532, 534) serially connected with means for bypassing the ports (520, 530, 532, 534) from the loop network (500). A control device (522, 524) is provided with bypass control over at least one of the ports (530, 532, 534). A host means (502) sends a command to the control device (522, 524) at regular intervals and the control device (522, 524) has a counter which restarts a time period at the receipt of each command. If the time period expires, the control device (522, 524) activates the means for bypassing all the ports (530, 532, 534) under its control. The loop network (500) may have two loops (516, 518) with at least some of the ports (520, 530, 532, 534) common to both loops (516, 518).

摘要： A method and apparatus for detection of a port name in a loop network is provided, particularly a loop network in the form of a Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL). The loop network (100) has a plurality of devices (120) each device (120) having at least one port (211, 212) on the loop network (100). The method includes determining which ports (211, 212) are populated with devices (120) for which the unique port name (WWPN) is not known. The populated ports are then all bypassed and a mode is entered on the loop network (100) in which idle frames are transmitted around the loop network (100). One port is un-bypassed at a time and the port name from the un-bypassed port is received and recorded. The port name is received from the un-bypassed port in a Loop Initialisation Select Master (LISM) frame transmitted by the un-bypassed port.

摘要： A data storage system includes a host computer, a data storage device, and a communication bus connecting the host computer to the data storage device. The host computer is adapted to issue a specialized initiation command, such as a format command with a unique parameter or a unique send diagnostic command. Once received by the data storage device, the specialized initiation command is decoded by a command processor which, in turn, directs a memory controller to execute an internal initiation of target sectors residing on data storage media within the data storage device. The memory controller places sector data in a temporary memory device, such as a random-access memory (“RAM”), including a plurality of zeroes appended to a logical redundancy check (“LRC”) value. Once compiled, this sector data is written to the data storage media. In this way, target sectors of the data storage media are initialized with LRC information without requiring large amounts of data being transmitted over the communication bus.
