摘要： A disk array device having a plurality of hard disk units has a large-capacity memory mounted on a controller module which controls the whole device. The large-capacity memory has a system area managed by an OS and a cache area serving as a cache memory, and in addition, it has a table area which stores management/control information of the device and whose area size is changeable at an arbitrary instance. Therefore, it is possible to change the table area according to the state of the device in an active state without ON/OFF of a power source, so that an area not in use in the table area can be released for use as the cache memory. This makes it possible to appropriately varying the sizes of the table area and the cache area in an active state while the device is in operation, thereby realizing effective use of the large-capacity memory.

摘要： The present invention has been developed to carry out the dual-writing of data in cache memories at a higher speed through a single address designation for the improvement of processing performance. In the present invention, a host interface module produces addressing information for designating two written-in destinations, and a bridge module produces two transferred-to addresses and written-in addresses of the cache memories on the basis of the addressing information so that data to be written is transferred to two management modules corresponding to the two transferred-to addresses to be written at the written-in addresses of the cache memories of the management modules.
摘要翻译：本发明已被开发为通过单个地址指定以更高的速度对高速缓冲存储器中的数据进行双重写入，以提高处理性能。在本发明中，主机接口模块产生用于指定两个写入目的地的寻址信息，并且桥接模块基于寻址信息产生高速缓冲存储器的两个转移地址和写入地址，从而将数据被写入被传送到两个管理模块，该管理模块对应于要写入管理模块的高速缓冲存储器的写入地址的两个传送地址。

摘要： A storage control apparatus concatenates a plurality of logical units to construct a large capacity logical unit, wherein logical units extending over a plurality of controllers can be concatenated. The channel adapter sends an I/O request to one controller which charges one logical unit constituting the concatenation logical unit, out of a plurality of controllers when an I/O request is sent from a host to the concatenation logical unit LU linking a plurality of logical units, executes I/O processing in the one controller, then sends the I/O request to another controller which charges another logical unit constituting the concatenation logical unit, and continues I/O processing in the another controller.

摘要： An interdevice communication monitoring unit 62-1 calculates a variable timeout time (T2−T) by subtracting an elapsed time T from a predetermined fixed timeout time T2 for monitoring an intermodule communication to monitor an elapsed time of an intermodule communication. The fixed timeout time T2 is a time shorter than a predetermined interface connection check time T1 for monitoring an interface connection with a channel. When the elapsed time T of the intermodule communication exceeds the variable timeout time (T2−T), the interdevice communication monitoring unit requests a channel to separate the interface connection, and then when an end response is obtained from a control module, requests the channel for an interface reconnection and then transmits an end response.

摘要： A system creates a configuration definition table to be used for accessing a physical disk according to a host I/O request, to decrease a memory size of the configuration definition table even if common firmware is used for models with different scales. For this, a model correspondence table to show the definition of each model is provided in a configuration setup processing module, the maximum values of this model are recorded in a memory based on this content, and a memory area for each item is secured. And the actual content of the configuration definition is developed on the secured memory. Therefore even for a diversity of models, the memory size of the configuration definition table can be decreased to a size matching the model, with common firmware regardless the model.
