  • Patent number: 6601135
    Abstract: A no-integrity management method and system for managing logical volumes of a computer system. The no-integrity refers to the fact that the availability status of each partition within the mirrored logical volumes is not written to a direct access storage device but instead stored within a volatile memory. When the computer system is shutdown the availability status information is discarded, and the availability status of each partition is marked as active upon first open of a partition after startup of the computer system.
