  • Patent number: 10884881
    Abstract: Proposed is a scale-out-type storage system which implements high-availability, high-speed failover. In a scale-out-type storage system, two or more nodes each comprise a cluster controller, a node controller, a plurality of subcluster processes (subclusters and the like) which are processes which execute I/O processing in their own node, which form a subcluster between processes in their own node, and which are synchronized with work-type (active)/standby-type (passive) corresponding processes in the other nodes, and a nonvolatile data store (SODB). The configuration information of the storage system is held partitioned into global configuration information of the SODB and local configuration information and the like of the subclusters and the like, and thereupon the working-type subcluster is capable of executing I/O processing without accessing the SODB.

  • Patent number: 10202493
    Abstract: Provided are a thermosetting resin composition which is soluble in a general-purpose solvent and which can obtain a cured product (cured film) having high optical transparency to the ultraviolet region (approximately 300 nm) from the visible region, and a polyamide-imide resin suitable for use in preparing the thermosetting resin composition. Specifically, provided are an alcohol-modified polyamide-imide resin, which is obtained by reacting an isocyanurate type polyisocyanate (a1) synthesized from an isocyanate having an aliphatic structure with a tricarboxylic anhydride (a2) to prepare a polyamide-imide resin (a), and then reacting the polyamide-imide resin (a) with an alcohol compound (b); a curable resin composition containing the polyamide-imide resin; and a cured product of the curable resin composition.

  • Publication number: 20180018326
    Abstract: A storage management system applies respective storage management applications to an extended function in a storage system or to a new storage system, without having to add a processing logic for each storage management AP and without increasing the applied load. Therefore, multiple versatile processes are installed to a storage management API library of the storage management server. Further, when the storage management AP is connected to the storage management API providing server program via the storage management API library, the storage management API library acquires an API attribute information from the storage management API providing server program. Then, when the storage management AP executes the function of the storage system via the storage management API library, before and after execution of the function, the storage management API library combines multiple versatile processes according to API attribute information, and the processes are executed by the storage management server.

  • Publication number: 20170017403
    Abstract: A storage system creates an HA configuration in a virtual storage composed of resources of first and second storage subsystems. A user of the virtual storage selects a replication destination volume (second logical volume) of a first logical volume of the first storage subsystem that the user wishes to duplicate from the second storage. At this time, only a logical volume not recognized from a host is selectable as the second logical volume. When data duplication between the first logical volume and the second logical volume is started, the second storage subsystem sets an identification number of the second logical volume to be the same as the identification number of the first logical volume. Thereafter, at the point of time when duplication is completed, the second storage changes the setting of the second logical volume so that the second logical volume can be recognized from the host.

  • Publication number: 20150381734
    Abstract: The present invention can shorten a response time required by a client computer to receive configuration information after transmitting a request for the configuration information to a storage system. A storage controller updates a plurality of pieces of configuration information based on control. A server computer transmits, to a storage controller, input information designating configuration information among the plurality of pieces of configuration information, according to a preconfigured schedule. The storage controller transmits output information including the configuration information inside the storage controller to a server computer based on the input information. The server computer receives output information, and stores the output information in association with the input information. Upon receipt of the input information from a client computer, the server computer transmits the output information associated with the received input information to the client computer.

  • Patent number: 8732428
    Abstract: Provided is a system in which, when connecting an external storage apparatus to a primary storage apparatus, the setting of an external volume to be mapped to the primary storage apparatus can be set to the external storage apparatus by a volume creation request to the primary storage apparatus without requiring direct setting processing on the external storage apparatus. When an administrator registers, in the primary storage apparatus, a command for setting a volume to the external storage apparatus and the administrator executes processing for setting a volume to the primary storage apparatus, if the primary storage apparatus determines that it is necessary to create a volume in the external storage apparatus, the primary storage apparatus sends the registered command to the external storage apparatus so that the administrator can set the volume to the external storage apparatus via the primary storage apparatus.

  • Patent number: 7581061
    Abstract: The storage control device of the present invention uses a temporary volume to move data rapidly between volume groups. The storage control device forms a plurality of volume groups by grouping volumes of the same performance. At least one or more temporary volumes are each pre-provided in the respective volume groups. The control section calculates and manages the priority levels of the respective data. The data with the highest priority level in the lower volume group are copied beforehand to the temporary volume in the upper volume group at a time when the data are not being accessed by the host. As a result, data can be moved rapidly when data migration is executed and so forth.
