  • Patent number: 7552147
    Abstract: A system, method a computer usable storage medium tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the computer to perform a computer-based method for restoration of a database from a failed data recovery. For each failed data recovery the method generates a log error data set having log records of a faulty transaction unapplied to data due to inconsistency. Log error data set is directly useable by a log analysis tool to regenerate and redo the unapplied faulty transaction to recover the data and by a print log tool to diagnose the faulty transaction. Log records mimic format of records of an archive log data set and identify data objects, faulty transactions on the data objects and a range of the unapplied data objects' updates.

  • Patent number: 7120746
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system, method, and program for transferring data. When a transaction commits, multiple data objects that have been changed by the transaction are identified. The multiple data objects are written from local storage to a cache structure using a batch write command. When changed data objects at a first system that are not cached in the shared external storage are written to disk, a batch cross invalidation command is used to invalidate the data objects at a second system. Additionally, multiple data objects are read from the cache structure into a processor storage using a batch castout command.
