摘要： A method for reducing duplicate data of an active file system, where the data is stored on a storage device of a storage system, is disclosed. A persistent image of the active file system is generated at a first point in time. At a later time, a sequence of steps to compare the active file system with the persistent image is initiated. Then, if a block of data of the active file system is identical to the data in the persistent image, the active file system is directed to refer to the persistent image for data of the file. Alternatively, if the block of data of the active file system is not identical to the data in the persistent image, the active file system is directed to refer to the data of the active file system. A file folding command may be issued to start the comparison.

摘要： The present invention relates to a system for restoring a file from a snapshot, where a version of the file exists in both an active file system and the snapshot. A twin inode is created in the active file system and comparisons are made between block pointers of the twin inode and the snapshot. If there is a match, the block pointer of the twin inode is moved to the active file system. If there is not a match, a determination is made whether the snapshot block pointer exists in the active file system. If the snapshot block pointer does not exist in the active file system, it is copied to the active file system. If it does exist, then the actual data block pointed to by the snapshot block pointer is copied to the active file system. In this way, a file may be restored without the need to always copy every individual data block or inode from the snapshot.
摘要翻译：本发明涉及一种用于从快照恢复文件的系统，其中文件的版本存在于活动文件系统和快照中。在活动文件系统中创建一个双引号，并且在双引号和快照的块指针之间进行比较。如果有匹配，则双胞胎inode的块指针将被移动到活动文件系统。如果不匹配，则确定快照块指针是否存在于活动文件系统中。如果活动文件系统中不存在快照块指针，则将其复制到活动文件系统。如果存在，则将快照块指针指向的实际数据块复制到活动文件系统。以这种方式，可以恢复文件，而不需要总是从快照中复制每个单独的数据块或inode。

摘要： The invention provides a method and system for reducing RAID parity computation following a RAID subsystem failure. Ranges of RAID stripes are assigned to bits in a bitmap that is stored on disk. When writes to the RAID are in progress, the bit associated with the range of stripes in the bitmap is set. When a failure occurs during the write process, the bitmap is analyzed on reboot to determine which ranges of stripes where in the process of being written, and the parity data for only those ranges of stripes is recomputed. Efficiency is increased by use of an in-memory write counter that tracks multiple writes to each stripe range. Using the write counter, the bitmap is written to disk only after each cycle of its associated bitmap bit being set to a value of 1 and then returning to zero. The invention may be installed, modified, and removed at will from a RAID array, and this may be accomplished while the system is in operation.
摘要翻译：本发明提供了一种用于在RAID子系统故障之后减少RAID奇偶校验计算的方法和系统。 RAID条带的范围分配给存储在磁盘上的位图中的位。当对RAID的写入进行中，与位图中的条带范围相关联的位被设置。当在写入过程中发生故障时，在重新启动时分析位图，以确定在写入过程中哪个条带范围，并且仅重新计算那些条带范围的奇偶校验数据。通过使用跟踪对每个条带范围的多次写入的内存中写计数器来提高效率。使用写计数器，位图仅在其相关位图位的每个周期设置为1，然后返回到零后才写入磁盘。本发明可以随意地从RAID阵列安装，修改和移除，并且这可以在系统运行时完成。

摘要： A storage server provides a set of client devices with access to a set of mass storage devices. The storage server receives requests from the client devices, each request representing a storage operation to be performed by the storage server on the set of mass storage devices. The storage server maintains a log of write requests received from the client devices, the log including a separate log entry for each of the write requests, and a separate checksum in each of the log entries. Each checksum is for use by a checksum algorithm in determining data integrity of the corresponding log entry. The checksum algorithm is selected, from among a number of selectable a checksum algorithms, based on one or more predetermined criteria, such as a desired balance between performance and checksum strength.

摘要： A method and system for reliably performing extra-long operations in a reliable state-full system (such as a file system). The file system includes a separate portion of the file system reserved for files having extra-long operations in progress, including file deletion and file truncation. This separate portion of the file system is called the zombie file space; it includes a separate name space from the regular (“live”) file system that is accessible to users, and is maintained as part of the file system when recording a consistency point.

摘要： File system is capable of performing long operations, such as deletions and truncations of long files, in a deterministic and atomic manner with regard to its recorded consistency points. The system includes both live filespace accessible to users, and user-inaccessible zombie filespace. In representative embodiments, the system includes a file deletion manager and a truncation manager capable of operating on files in the zombie filespace. Changes to the zombie filespace can be recorded in persistent memory. After a power failure or a similar event, the system can use the recorded changes to replay operations on the files in the zombie filespace, facilitating recovery. Zombie space can be sized dynamically, enabling the deletion manager to request enlargement of the zombie filespace. In some embodiments, files are transferred to the zombie filespace before links to the files' blocks in the live filespace are broken, and before performing operations on the files.
摘要翻译：文件系统能够以确定性和原子的方式对其记录的一致性点执行长操作，例如长文件的删除和截断。该系统包括用户可访问的实时文件空间和用户无法访问的僵尸文件空间。在代表性实施例中，系统包括能够对僵尸文件空间中的文件进行操作的文件删除管理器和截断管理器。对僵尸文件空间的更改可以记录在持久性内存中。在电源故障或类似的事件之后，系统可以使用记录的更改来重放僵尸文件空间中的文件的操作，从而有助于恢复。僵尸空间可以动态调整大小，使删除管理器能够请求放大僵尸文件空间。在一些实施例中，在到文件空间中的文件块的链接被破坏之前以及在对文件执行操作之前，将文件传送到僵尸文件空间。

摘要： A method for restoring a virtual disk (vdisk) in an active file system to an earlier time is described. Pointers pointing to data represented by the virtual disk are maintained. The pointers are saved to persistent storage at the earlier time. A pointer at a later time is compared with the pointers saved at the earlier time. If the pointer from the later time matches the pointer saved at the earlier time, the pointer from the later time is kept in the active file system. If the pointer from the later time does not match the pointers saved at the earlier time, a set of pointers associated with the pointer saved at the earlier time is copied to the active file system.
