  • SYNCHRONIZING LOGICAL SYSTEMS
    Publication number: 20080263083
    Abstract: A storage control unit detects a change in a configuration of a plurality of logical subsystems included in the storage control unit. The storage control unit sends a notification, wherein the notification indicates the change in the configuration of the plurality of logical subsystems. The storage control unit receives data transfer requests directed at available logical subsystems in the storage control unit, wherein the available logical subsystems are determined based on the configuration of the plurality of logical subsystems.
    Type: Application

  • Apparatus, system, and method for re-generating data structures
    Patent number: 7340474
    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for re-generating a data structure. A detection module detects corruption of a first data structure of a storage device. A removal module removes a first path from a host system to the first data structure without affecting communications through other paths between the host system and other data structures of the storage device. A path module establishes a second path from the host system to a second data structure of the storage device. A re-generation module generates the second data structure to replace the first data structure.
