摘要： A data recording disk drive is provided with a fixed block architecture sector format that eliminates the ID region. The servo region contains sector identification information in the form of a start-of-track indicating mark recorded in a selected sector of each track and a start-of sector indicating mark recorded in each sector. A full track number identifier is encoded in the position field within the servo region of each sector. A look-up table is built at format time to map bad sectors out of the disk drive. The table contains entries for each cluster of contiguous bad sectors, and is searched at runtime to provide conversion of logical sector location identifiers to physical sector location identifiers.

摘要： A method for operating a synchronized array of fixed block (FBA) formatted Direct Access Storage Devices (DASDs) to store and update variable-length (CKD) formatted records. This method is suitable for use with DASDs that obtain high recording density by using read and write head technology requiring "micro-jogging" to adjust for differing read and write head alignment or banded disk architecture having a higher block count in the outer tracks than in the inner tracks. Magneto-resistive heads may require micro-jogging to realign the write head for recording after reading the physical track location. The invention employs a DASD staggered array architecture having logical tracks consisting of diagonal-major sequences of consecutive blocks arranged in a predetermined wrap-around manner such as a topological cylinder or torus. The minimum necessary number of DASDs (N) in the staggered array is limited by the fixed block size (B), the interblock gap size (G), the average DASD data transfer rate (D), and the micro-jog delay time (T). A (N+1).sup.th DASD may be added to record the parity of each diagonal-major sequence for improved fault-tolerance.

摘要： A method and means is described for writing data on a recording medium, such as a disk or tape, containing servo samples in such manner that the number of servo samples is increased with a minimal increase in overhead (non-data) regions. The tracks on the medium are divided into a plurality of maxi sections, each of which contains all fields with servo and associated overhead information and also a data field. At least one micro servo section containing only a portion of said information is located within each data field.As each micro servo section passes by an associated recording head, writing and reading of data is temporarily interrupted, but resumed when the micro servo section moves beyond the head, in such manner as to require minimal resynchronization of said data during reading.Using a phase continuous clock, data is written in both portions of a data field to either side of each micro servo section in one pass of the disk or tape relative to the head. The micro servo sections contain no timing reference address mark and require no data encoder/decoder flush or synchronization byte to resume reading in the portion of the data field following each micro servo section.

摘要： Embodiments of the invention relate to storing data in a storage array. An aspect of the invention includes receiving and arranging read data in array that includes m rows and n columns of entries, with each entry including at least one sector. In the array, mr+s locations are assigned to parity entries, such that each row has at least r parity entries. The parity entries correspond to a partial-maximum distance separable (PMDS) code that allows recovery from up to r erasures in each of the m rows as well as s additional erasures in any locations in the data array, where s is an integer greater than zero. The write data and the associated parity entries are written to the set of storage devices.

摘要： Embodiments of the invention relate to erasure correcting codes for storage arrays. An aspect of the invention includes receiving a read stripe from a plurality of storage devices. The read stripe includes a block of pages arranged in rows and columns, with each column corresponding to one of the storage devices. The pages include data pages and parity pages, with the number of parity pages at least one more than the number of rows and not a multiple of the number of rows. The method further includes reconstructing at least one erased page in response to determining that the read stripe includes the at least one erased page and that the number of erased pages is less than or equal to the number of parity pages. The reconstructing is responsive to a multiple erasure correcting code and to the block of pages. The reconstructing results in a recovered read stripe.

摘要： A system and method for interfacing a non-SCSI device to a computer network for communicating with a SCSI device attached to the computer network is disclosed. An interface receives a SCSI-based communication message from the network that is intended for the non-SCSI device. The SCSI-based communication can be formatted for transport over, for example, a TCP/IP transport stream and includes, for example, a command descriptor block and accompanying data. A translator device converts a first SCSI-based communication message to a corresponding first non-SCSI communication message that is recognizable by the non-SCSI device. A translator device also receives a second non-SCSI communication message from the non-SCSI device and converts the second non-SCSI communication message into a corresponding second SCSI-based communication message. The interface device, responsive to the second SCSI-based communication message, sends the second SCSI based communication message to the network.

摘要： The embodiments of the invention provide methods of protecting data blocks while writing to a storage array, wherein storage units in the storage array include write logs. The data protection level of the write logs is equal to or greater than the data protection level of the storage units. Moreover, the write logs have metadata describing contents of the write logs, wherein the metadata include a sequence number identifying the age of the metadata. Each of the data blocks is a member of a parity group having addressable data blocks and first parity blocks. The addressable data blocks have at least one host data block and at least one associated data block.

摘要： A data cache for an iSCSI network caches block-level data from WAN servers for use by clients (e.g., LANs). The cache authenticates itself to the WAN servers, and authenticates clients requesting cache access. Mechanisms are provided to prevent clients from accessing cached data intended for other clients.
