    • A double storage multi-carousel recordable media library is provided which includes a plurality of vertically stacked carousels mounted for rotation about a vertically extending central axis. Each carousel has a plurality of receptacles which are angularly spaced about the central axis, each receptacle being capable of storing a pair of recordable media disks. Each carousel has a large peripheral cutout which is located between a pair of receptacles for allowing passage of the disks and each receptacle has a smaller peripheral cutout for allowing movement of a transport device. Each carousel cutout is capable of alignment along a transport axis which is parallel to the central axis so that a disk can be transported vertically therealong. A disk chucking device is mounted for receiving and releasably retaining disks which are moved vertically along the transport axis. A transport device is movable vertically along the transport axis and can pass through any receptacle cutout for removing a pair of disks from a receptacle when the receptacle is aligned with the transport axis. A drive device may be mounted on the transport device for processing a bottom side of either one of the disks. If the bottom disk is to be processed, both disks stay on the transport/drive device. If the top disk is to be processed, it is temporarily chucked out the top of the library while the bottom disk is rotated out of the way. The transport/drive device then retrieves the top disk for processing. By a special mechanical arrangement, the carousels can be accurately positioned for processing the disks even though the carousels are rotated by ordinary motors.

    • A single accessing mechanism is deployed adjacently to two optical media libraries. Each library has a plurality of record medium storage compartments arranged respectively into a one-compartment wide column. Each library has its own media drive (player or recorder). An accessing module in the accessing mechanism is movable along the column lengths. The accessing module has two transfer compartments respectively for transferring record media in respective ones of said libraries between the respective storage compartments and the respective media drives. The compartments, either in the accessing module or the library, are vertically offset. A vertical space between vertically adjacent record media enables a fetching apparatus to simultaneously enter such space in both libraries. Moving the accessing module upward or downward respectively selects the record medium to be fetched--in only one of the two libraries.
    • 单个访问机制被部署在两个光学媒体库附近。 每个库具有多个记录介质存储隔间,分别布置成单隔室宽的列。 每个图书馆都有自己的媒体播放器(播放器或录音机)。 访问机构中的访问模块可以沿列长度移动。 访问模块分别具有两个传送隔间,用于在相应的存储隔间和各个介质驱动器之间的相应的一个库中传送记录介质。 在访问模块或库中的隔离专区都是垂直偏移的。 垂直相邻的记录介质之间的垂直空间使获取装置能够同时在两个库中输入这样的空间。 向上或向下移动访问模块分别选择要访问的记录介质,只能在两个库中的一个库中。

    • A file management system facilitates both physical and logical file groupings with convenient access to surplus media for sub-volume expansion. Each item of media includes a local file directory, which provides a list of files stored on the medium, cross-referenced to the files' addresses on the medium. The media items are organized as one or more primary sub-volumes, an auxiliary sub-volume, and a media reservoir. Each primary sub-volume preferably comprises a single sub-directory, and includes one or more media items used to store files of a specific class. Initially each primary sub-volume includes a single piece of media. The library also includes at least one auxiliary sub-volume, which may include multiple sub-directories, to store leftover files that do not fall under classes corresponding to the primary sub-volumes. Files may be stored on the auxiliary sub-volume on a random, "space available" basis. A media reservoir includes a bank of new, erased, or re-formatted media items available for individual inclusion into the primary and auxiliary sub-volumes as these sub-volumes expand.

    • A file management system for accessing mass storage systems, employing a compressed common file directory ("CCFD") that occupies a minimum amount of storage space. The CCFD is implemented in a storage system including a library of media, one or more storage drives that may be permanently or selectively coupled to the media, and a controller connected. Each piece of media includes a local file directory, which contains a listing of the files stored on that piece of media cross-referenced to those files' addresses on the media item. The controller contains or has convenient access to the CCFD. When access to a file is desired, the CCFD is used to quickly identify the piece of media containing that file. More particularly, the CCFD includes a first data structure including a list of encoded filenames cross-referenced to a list oil compressed media IDs. Each encoded filename comprises a filename of a file stored in one or more of the media, encoded with a selected encoding scheme. For each encoded filename, the associated compressed media ID comprises an encoded name of a piece of media containing that file. A second data structure includes a list of each compressed media ID cross-referenced to a media location identifier specifying the location of that media item in the library. To access a desired file stored in the library, the file's name is first encoded. Then, the encoded filename is cross-referenced in the first data structure to obtain a compressed media ID. Using the second data structure, the compressed media ID is used to determine the media's location identifier. The media location identifier is then used to locate the media containing the file. After the media is located and obtained, the media's local file directory is searched to find the desired file's address in that piece of media.
    • 用于访问大容量存储系统的文件管理系统,采用占用最小量的存储空间的压缩公用文件目录(“CCFD”)。 CCFD在包括媒体库,可以永久地或选择性地耦合到媒体的一个或多个存储驱动器以及连接的控制器的存储系统中实现。 每个媒体都包含一个本地文件目录,其中包含存储在媒体项上与这些文件地址交叉引用的该媒体上的文件的列表。 控制器包含或方便地访问CCFD。 当需要访问文件时,CCFD用于快速识别包含该文件的介质。 更具体地,CCFD包括第一数据结构,其包括与列表油压缩介质ID交叉参考的编码文件名列表。 每个编码的文件名包括存储在用选择的编码方案编码的一个或多个媒体中的文件的文件名。 对于每个编码的文件名,相关联的压缩媒体ID包括包含该文件的一片媒体的编码名称。 第二数据结构包括与指定库中该媒体项目的位置的媒体位置标识符交叉参考的每个压缩媒体ID的列表。 要访问库中存储的所需文件,首先对该文件的名称进行编码。 然后,编码的文件名在第一数据结构中被交叉引用以获得压缩的介质ID。 使用第二数据结构,使用压缩媒体ID来确定媒体的位置标识符。 然后使用媒体位置标识符来定位包含该文件的媒体。 找到并获取介质后,将搜索介质的本地文件目录,以在该介质中找到所需文件的地址。
