  • Closed loop adaptive prestage method, system, and product for prestaging cache blocks
    Patent number: 7080212
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product are disclosed for dynamically determining and adjusting a number of data blocks to be prestaged in a cache included in the storage device. The storage device receives and processes input/output (I/O) requests. Information about the I/O requests and about the processing of the requests by the storage device is accumulated. The information is then used to dynamically adjust a prestaging policy as the storage device receives and processes requests. The prestaging policy defines a current number of data blocks to be prestaged in the cache.
