Abstract: A method for scrubbing storage in a computer memory which includes a plurality of memory modules each having plurality of memory chips. The method includes selecting a pattern that correlates with physical structures for scanning the memory chips of the memory modules for errors, scanning a memory chip of a memory module for errors based upon the selected pattern. The method further includes successively scanning remaining memory chips of the respective memory module for errors when an error is found in the scanned memory chip, and scanning a memory chip of another memory module when an error is not found in the scanned memory chip of the respective memory module.

Abstract: A method and system for enterprise memory management of memory modules of a computer system. The method includes scanning memory chips of a memory module for errors, analyzing a scrub error map corresponding to a scrubbing operation of the memory module, generating a scrub map summary based upon the scrub error map analyzed, creating an error history map by adding the scrub map summary generated, analyzing the error history map created and tracking a chip location for each memory chip of the memory module including errors, and determining a scrubbing algorithm of the memory module based on the analyzed error history map. The enterprise memory management system includes a plurality of computers each including memory modules, and an enterprise memory manager which collects and analyzes error history maps corresponding to each computer and determines a scrubbing algorithm of the memory modules of each computer.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and program product for encryption/decryption of data on a volume of data storage media including dividing the volume into a plurality of locations, assigning a unique key to each location for encryption/decryption of data in the respective location of the volume, mapping the locations and keys in the key manager, and encrypting/decrypting data on the volume based on the data's physical location on the volume. The owning entity owning each location on the volume may also be mapped, and the keys for each location owned by the same owning entity may be the same.
